problem_activity: Narrative
In this activity, students analyze three different ways to subtract. They see that taking away is one way to find the difference, but that you can also count on or use known addition facts. Students further solidify their understanding that addition and subtraction are related, which sets the groundwork for a later activity when students solve subtraction problems within 10.
Required Materials
Materials to Gather
Connecting cubes or two-color counters
Launch
Groups of 2
Give students access to connecting cubes or two-color counters.
Activity
Read the task statement.
“First you will work on your own. Think about what each student means and be ready to explain your thinking in a way that others will understand.”
5 minutes: independent work time
4 minutes: partner discussion
Monitor for students who can use the 10-frame with six red counters to explain the relationship between
\(10 - 6\)
and
\(6 + \boxed{\phantom3} = 10\)
.
Student Facing
Mai, Diego, and Noah find the value of
\(10 - 6\)
.
Diego says, “I can take away.”

Noah says, “I can use what I know about
\(6 + 4\)
to help me.”

Activity Synthesis
Invite previously identified students to share.
“Who can restate what _____ just showed us?” (Diego subtracted by taking away 6 counters one at a time and saw that there were 4 counters left. Mai subtracted by thinking about addition. She counted on from 6 until she got to 10 and noticed she counted up 4. Noah knows his sums of 10. He knows 10 can be made by 6 and 4, so
\(10 - 6 = 4\)
.)
“Which method do you like best?” (I know my sums to 10 so I would use that. I like counting on because I like to add more than take away.)
