Teaching Notes

Emphasize understanding place value and regrouping from the hundreds place across the tens to the ones. Use manipulatives (e.g., base ten blocks) to model the decomposition of 100 into 9 tens and 10 ones.

Vocabulary
Regroup: Borrowing from a place value.
Borrow: Taking from a higher place value.
Common Mistakes
  • Not regrouping across the zero in the tens place correctly.
  • Subtracting the top digit from the bottom digit if the top digit is smaller, instead of regrouping.
Differentiation
SupportProvide problems with visual aids like base ten block representations. Work through examples step-by-step, explicitly modeling each regrouping stage.
ChallengeChallenge students to solve problems mentally or to explain their regrouping strategy in detail. Introduce word problems requiring this skill.
Discussion Questions
  • How is subtracting from 100 similar to and different from subtracting from a 2-digit number?
  • What happens when you need to subtract from a zero, and how do you solve it?
Extension Activities
  • Subtract from larger hundreds.
  • Create word problems.
Parent Tip

Use play money to practice subtracting 2-digit amounts from $100.
