How Can You Help?
• Show your child the number buttons on the keyboard. Encourage him
or her to use them as a number line when finding the difference be-
tween two numbers.
• Have your child use tangible objects such as pennies, beans, blocks,
etc. to show the numbers being subtracted. This should be helpful in
finding the difference.
• When your child is playing the activity, encourage him or her to tell a
story problem to go along with the subtraction equation.
