This is one of my favorite “go to” activities when introducing subtraction. I love the fact that all the students need is one die to play! This is also a great game to use when you pull students in a small group for extra practice. It’s super simple to implement and an easy resource to grab when you don’t have much time to prep.
I also love playing this wih my students whole group with a large die or two dice for a bigger number! Just write the subtraction sentence on the board and fill in the blanks as you play together. The students love calling out the answer and really get the extra practice when you model it whole group.
