Grade 4 Math · Chapter 1, Lesson 6

Practice sheets

5 sheets for Subtracting Multi-Digit Numbers. Same topic on every one, but each asks for a different kind of thinking — so a child who has finished one has not simply done the next one already.

  1. 1. Break the number apartReading a number as the places it is made of.
  2. 2. Put the number togetherThe same fact in reverse, which a child who has memorised one direction cannot do.
  3. 3. Find the missing placeWorking out one place from the whole number and the rest.
  4. 4. Find the mistakeError analysis, and the place a digit sits in is where the error hides.
  5. 5. Which is bigger?Comparing by place rather than by how long the number looks.
