Subtract Whole Hundreds: how to help at home or in class
Write a number such as 826 and slide a sticky note over the last two digits. Only the 8 is visible, so your child takes away 3 from it and then lifts the note to read the answer. After a few rounds, drop the sticky note and ask them to cover the digits with a finger in their mind. They are ready to move on when the tens and ones stay put automatically.
