Teaching Notes
Emphasize regrouping a ten into ten ones. Use base ten blocks or a number line to visualize the subtraction process, especially for students new to borrowing.
Vocabulary
Common Mistakes
- Subtracting the smaller digit from the larger digit in the ones place (e.g., 30 - 7, student does 7-0=7 and 3-0=3, answer 37).
- Forgetting to adjust the tens place after regrouping.
Differentiation
Discussion Questions
- How is subtracting 7 from 30 different from subtracting 7 from 9?

- Can you think of a real-life situation where you would need to subtract from a whole ten?
Extension Activities
- Use a number line.

- Draw it out.
