Description
Subtraction begins with something a child can see. Before a Kindergarten student can take a number away in their head, they need to look at a set of objects, cross some of them out, and count what is left. The Subtracting Using Pictures Assessment Worksheet builds that first bridge from picture to number sentence, giving you a quick, friendly way to check whether each learner can model taking away within 10.
This subtracting using pictures assessment worksheet works in two short parts. In Part A, students read a subtraction equation, cross out that many pictures from the row beneath it, and write the difference in the answer box. In Part B, the crossing out is already done for them, so students simply count the pictures that are left and record how many remain. Both directions are read-aloud friendly, the pictures are large and easy to count, and every equation stays within 10.
What’s Included
- One printable worksheet page with six subtraction picture problems
- Part A: three cross-out-and-solve equations using apples, cupcakes, and balloons
- Part B: three count-what-is-left picture items using flowers, balls, and leaves
- Large, clearly spaced clip art sized for young counters
- A full answer key page
There are three reasons this kindergarten subtraction worksheet helps young learners. First, the pictures carry the whole idea of subtraction, so a child who cannot yet hold numbers in memory can still succeed. Second, the two-part design separates doing the taking away from reading a picture that has already been changed, which shows you exactly where a student is strong and where they need another day of practice. Third, the answer boxes ask for a written numeral, so students practice forming numbers while they think about quantity.
Teachers can use this page as a quick exit ticket at the end of a subtraction lesson, as a small-group warm-up with counters on the desk, or as a beginning-of-unit baseline. Parents can slip it into a folder for a five-minute table activity, or laminate it and let a child cross out with a dry-erase marker again and again. Try reading each problem aloud as a little story — there were nine apples, and four were eaten — so the numbers stay connected to something real.
