About this resource
Description
This subtract single digit worksheet helps 2nd grade students build fast, accurate subtraction facts within 20. Every problem takes away a one-digit number from a teen number, so students practice crossing ten, a key step toward subtraction fluency.
How to Use This Worksheet
In Part A, students solve eight subtraction problems written in column form and write each difference below the line. In Part B, students subtract first and then use the same number to finish a matching addition fact. This shows how addition and subtraction work together and gives children a simple way to check their own answers. Because every answer is a single digit, students can focus on the strategy rather than on large numbers. Use the page for morning work, a math center, small-group practice, or homework.
What’s Included
- Eight column subtraction problems that subtract a one-digit number from a teen number
- Two subtract-then-check problems that connect subtraction to addition
- A complete answer key on the second page
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
- Repeated practice with teen-minus-one-digit facts builds the subtraction fluency 2nd graders need for larger numbers.
- Checking with an addition fact teaches students to test their own thinking instead of guessing.
- Clean, roomy problem cards give young learners plenty of space to write and keep their work organized.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before students begin, model one problem by counting back to ten and then counting back the rest. Invite students to say the related addition fact out loud after each answer. For extra practice, have children write their own teen subtraction problem and trade with a partner. This 2nd grade subtraction worksheet also works well as a quick check before a unit test. Pair this subtract single digit worksheet with the resources below for more practice.
