Addition and Subtraction Worksheets
Basic Subtraction. Welcome to About Preschool Addition and Subtraction worksheets.
Here you will find a wide range of free printable Kindergarten Math Worksheets, which will help your child learn to add and subtract up to 10.
The sheets have been organised into: addition only, subtraction only and then addition and subtraction.
Free subtraction worksheets are a fun way to introduce subtraction basics. Realize however, that children of this age will work more on learning the numbers and adding. Subtraction is a tougher concept.
Preschoolers are able to understand subtraction only in the most basic way. It is easier to show them with everyday objects. For example, If I have three blocks and I “take away” one block, how many blocks are left? Or… if a child has five dollars to spend at the store and buys an item that costs two dollars, how many dollars will they have left? Basic Subtraction.
Continue to teach subtraction with everyday objects. “If I have six M&M’s and I share three with you, how many do I have left?”. Make learning fun, so it doesn’t feel like learning, and the children will pick up on the concepts faster. If it is ever clear that your preschooler is not interested in what you are attempting to teach, save it for another day. Children who are having fun learning will learn, while children who are made to feel it is a chore, will learn to dislike anything that feels like learning.
Suggestion:
Understand addition as putting together and adding to, and understand subtraction as taking apart and taking from.
Add and subtract within 10.
