Super subtracting in Kingfishers!

This week, the children have loved solving subtraction calculations using counters. There were lots of fantastic discussions where the children were able to identify the whole numbers, along with the 'part' they needed to subtract. Together, we collected some of the calculations the children had solved and we looked closely to see if we could recognise any patterns. To the children's amazement, they were able to identify that the whole number is always the biggest number and the number which appears after the equals symbol, is always the smallest. Well done Kingfishers!
