Are you wanting some activities to support children in grasping the idea of subtraction? Look no further than our Year 1 Subtraction- Take Away (How Many Left?) Prior Learning resource. This sheet includes two practical activities, covering an Early Learning Goal, that is linked to the new learning in this lesson. These activities are designed to recap previous knowledge before moving onto the new concepts covered in the accompanying resources.

Perfect for your continuous provision areas, where children can use practical resources to support them in their learning. Additionally, this can inform the use of key vocabulary and begin mathematical thinking and discussions. Ideal to set up and complete observations for each child. Alternatively, you could send this activity home as a task to be completed with objects families might have around the home, so children continue their learning outside of school.
