🍂 Where This Fits in Math Sequence

Subtraction clip cards work best after children understand the concrete concept of taking away using manipulatives like counters or beads. These cards provide abstract practice once children have worked extensively with concrete subtraction materials. If a child struggles with these, return to hands-on subtraction work with objects they can physically remove. The goal is fluency with number combinations under 10 before moving to larger subtraction operations.
