What I Have Learnt This Week

Subtracting using place value

This week I learnt how to subtract using place value. At first I wasn't sure how to subtract using place value, then Mr. A called some of us down to a teacher workshop ( a teacher workshop is when the teacher calls us down to the mat so we can learn about a specific goal we need to work on ) and our learning goal was W.A.L.T  ( we are learning to ) subtract using place value. Mr. A then gave us a number question that we had to guess how to use place value in subtraction, after one minuet of guessing Mr. A told us how to solve it.

How To Subtract Using Place Value

Say you had the question 256 - 123 = 133
First you would go 256 - 120 = 136. Then you would do 136 - 3 = 133 so then 133 is you answer.

Here is one for you to solve using the place value in subtraction.
427 - 293 =
