** Additional Important Information **

In this resource, I have no math problems on the cute little children's skin or hair, allowing your students to select any skin tone color and hair color. The directions read, "You pick the color for any empty areas." This also allows for some creativity after their math is done by selecting additional colors of their choice for the borders and other blank remaining areas. This feature is a real hit with my teacher buyers!

You can also use the provided cover page, the common core page, and the solve and color pages to create an in class math workbook!

Tuesday - Use page 6, the 18 Estimate Differences 2-digit by 2-digit subtraction math problems as morning work. Depending on the level of your boys and girls, they can complete the page alone, in pairs, or in a group.

OR Once the boys and girls are done, you, or a student, can project the answer key, covering up the problems and call them out one at a time, while revealing the answer.

ARE YOUR STUDENTS PRACTICING TWO DIGIT SUBTRACTION PROBLEMS?

Are you working on the multiple ways to write subtraction problems with second graders? This blog post has some tips, resources and lessons to help your students practice  2-digit subtraction problems. Fern Smith's Classroom Ideas
Practice, we all need it when learning a new skill, but sometimes it is difficult to schedule time in our daily routine for practice, so many new skills to teach.... we have to keep pushing forward. But practice is NEEDED, math, riding a bike, driving a car, etc. You know what I mean, you get the picture. Here's one of my favorite ways to get a few minutes of practice in during some downtime at school.

This game can be played a few different ways, boys against girls, tables against tables, or just predetermined teams. Have your contestants at the board and verbally give them a problem, 
For Example: 65 - 28 = 
a problem where they will need to write it correctly and regroup.

I give two points to the winner and one point to everyone else for doing the work, that way quitting is not allowed. 

A few things to avoid and some tips to improve them.
1. Students making fun of someone slow, I take that team's entire points away. "If you can't say anything nice, say nothing at all."
2. A student giving up on working the problem when they are last. Let them pick a team mate to HELP them, to TALK them through the problem, to ENCOURAGE them not to give up. This will also support your classroom culture of kindness and empathy, and set up the standard for helping each other, WITHOUT just telling someone else the answer.
3. A student shouting out the answer, again, take away that team's points and the other team members will encourage them to keep quiet as the game continues.

I try to give a small treat to each team that wins, that way they want to keep all their points and not speak out of turn. A Skittle, an M&M or two, erasers, even treats that do not require money... lining up first for recess, sitting with a friend during silent reading, a homework pass, etc.

You can also keep points for the entire day or week, depending on your grade level, playing this game anytime you get five minutes and need a break. Of course, this game can work with ANY skill! Enjoy!

I have created four resources to help you in your classroom when your students need more practice 2-digit subtraction.

DO YOU TEACH REWRITING TWO DIGIT SUBTRACTION PROBLEMS?

Are you working on the multiple ways to write subtraction problems with second graders? This blog post has some tips, resources and lessons to help you introduce and reinforce rewriting 2-digit subtraction problems. Fern Smith's Classroom Ideas
Rewrite Two Digit Subtraction
Are you working on the multiple ways to write subtraction problems? Here are some tips, resources and lessons to help you introduce and reinforce rewriting 2-digit subtraction.

1. Introduce on the board or with your digital camera...
82 - 64 =

2. Explain when working with regrouping, we find it easier to write the problems in this format. 
  82
- 64

Also explain that students and adults alike are less likely to make mistakes when writing it this way. 

3. Solve or have a student solve your example.

4. Continue with more examples as needed.

* Common mistakes to look for in student work, writing the digits in the incorrect column, for example, 46 in this problem instead of 64.

If you have not used graph paper in your classroom yet, I HIGHLY recommend getting some now. Your students will love working with something new, especially if you tell them they'll use it a lot in middle school or junior high school!  It will help keep the tens in one column and the ones in another, until they can transition to any blank paper.

I have four resources in my store to help you teach, reinforce and review rewriting 2-digit subtraction problems.
