The problem

Teen numbers make take-away messy

Subtracting from teen numbers invites the habit of subtracting the smaller digit from the larger.

Teen number confusion

In 15 - 7 children subtract 1 from 7 or 5 from 7, whichever feels easier.

Counting back is slow

Counting down seven from 15 is long, and errors pile up.

Comparing first

Without comparing the numbers, a child cannot tell if the answer will be small or large.

Questions

Before you buy.

Is this the same as Subtraction to 10?

No. It uses numbers up to 20, so children work with teens. Subtraction to 10 is the earlier set for smaller numbers.

How do I get the file?

The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PDF with 10 pages. No account needed.

Can I print it more than once?

Yes. One teacher or one household can print unlimited copies for their own students, this year and next.

Will it print in color?

The pages are designed to print in black and white, so they print clean on any home or school printer and do not eat a cartridge.

What paper size?

US Letter, 8.5 × 11 in. On A4, choose “fit to page” when you print.

What if it isn’t right for us?

Email support@pencillane.com within 30 days and we refund the full $3.50. No form, no questions.
