Settle children into subtraction by using this Year 3 Subtract Two Numbers (No Exchange) Prior Learning worksheet. This resource includes questions based on objectives covered earlier on in year 3, such as subtracting tens from 3-digits and subtracting ones from 3-digits. These are a great stepping stone for children to practise with before moving onto the new learning taking place in this lesson. We've covered varied fluency, reasoning and problem-solving skills, so children can feel prepared for subtracting two 3-digit numbers.

Use at the beginning of your lesson as a tool to gauge where children are at and where they might need additional support. Alternatively, use this resource as part of an intervention; the choice is yours. It comes with a handy answer sheet making marking a doddle.
