Add, Take Away and Make 10

Addition joins quantities or finds how many altogether. Subtraction can take away or find what remains. Making 10 is an important early number relationship.

Key ideas

  • join two small groups
  • take objects away
  • find how many remain
  • make and split 10
  • connect stories to + and − ideas

Worked example: 6 and 3 make 9. If 2 are taken from 7, 5 remain.

Common trap: Listen for whether the story is joining or removing.

Key words

altogether — the total after joining
take away — remove some
remain — what is left
part — one piece of a whole amount
whole — the complete amount
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 30 attempts on the same browser.
