This “Subtraction Within 20” resource is a comprehensive and differentiated maths tool designed to help Year 1 pupils build confidence and fluency with subtraction. Fully aligned with the UK National Curriculum objective “Add and subtract one-digit and two-digit numbers to 20, including zero,” it supports a range of abilities through structured, visual, and increasingly challenging activities. The resource includes three levels: Working Towards Age-Expected: Uses pictorial strategies, such as crossing out images, to introduce subtraction concepts step-by-step. Working At Age-Expected: Encourages independent practice with visual cues to consolidate subtraction facts. Greater Depth: Provides missing number problems, prompting children to use inverse operations and known facts to complete equations. Perfect for whole-class lessons, interventions, or home learning, this versatile pack helps pupils strengthen number sense and problem-solving skills. Answer sheets are included for easy assessment or self-checking. An ideal resource for teachers, tutors, and parents looking to support subtraction fluency in an engaging and accessible format.
This pack is print and go. Our catalogue does not list an editable copy of it, so none is offered here rather than promising a file nobody has opened. Page counts are not printed either, because we do not publish them and a guessed number is worse than none.
Our own system, with the star count repeated in every worksheet header so a child can be handed the right sheet without a word.
