How to Use This Pack

Thirty bingo cards, two to a page, each with sixteen subtraction facts within 20, such as 15 − 8. The teacher calls an answer, and children look for the fact on their card that makes it: when 7 is called, 15 − 8 is marked. No card holds two facts with the same answer, so each call marks one square at most. After the cards come calling cards for the answers 0 to 20 and a caller's checklist.

In the Classroom

Let children solve every fact on their card first and write the answers small in the corners, or play straight away for fluency practice. To call from the board, open the Bingo Caller set to subtraction within 20.

At Home

Play with a card each and the calling cards in a bowl. When your child marks a square, ask how they worked it out.

Tips for Success

  • Think addition: 15 − 8 is 8 + ? = 15
  • Count up from the smaller number
  • Take away to 10 first: 15 − 8 is 15 − 5 − 3
  • Check a winner's facts against the called answers
  • Copy the cards on card stock to use them again
