Subtraction

For subtraction, you are taking away one number from another number. So if we had 9 and 6 you can put 9 fingers up and then put 6 fingers down, so then you already did a subtraction problem! You have done 9-6=3 if you are confused go to the next slide if you are not confused skip the next slide.

Subtraction in more detail

So when you are subtracting, you are taking one number away from a different number. Use your fingers for this one, so if your problem is 8-3= , you would put 8 fingers up then, put 3 pingers down. Now you should have 5 fingers up, that is your answer.

Addition

When adding you are putting numbers together instead of taking them away. So if we had 5+3= , you would put put 5 fingers up and put 3 more fingers up. So now if you count how many fingers you have up, good you have 8 fingers up, that is your answer. So this is what it should look like, 5 + 3 + 8.

Good job you made it to the end
