Bounce Subtraction
Worksheet Description
This worksheet is a mathematical exercise focused on teaching subtraction using a number line. Each problem presents a subtraction equation where a smaller number must be subtracted from a larger one, all within 20. Below each problem is a number line from 0 to 20, which students can use as a visual aid to count backwards and find the answer. The worksheet includes a variety of subtraction problems, encouraging students to apply the number line method consistently.
The worksheet is designed to teach students how to use a number line as a tool for understanding and solving subtraction problems. It reinforces the concept that subtraction represents moving to the left or downwards on the number line, which visually represents decreasing values. By repeatedly using the number line to solve each problem, students can improve their understanding of number sequences and the relationship between numbers. Additionally, this method helps to build a student’s ability to perform mental arithmetic and develop an intuitive sense of number magnitude.
