  Make a Ten to Subtract

  In this lesson children use several strategies and models to subtract single-digit numbers from teen numbers. They use number paths to relate counting up, counting back, and making a ten by subtracting in parts that allow them to make a ten and then subtract the rest. They relate these strategies to similar strategies they used for addition.
