Introduction
(10 minutes)
Tell students that today you are going to teach them how to subtract two-digit numbers.
Think of a short word problem that uses subtraction with two-digit numbers. For example: 36 children are out on the playground. A teacher comes out and calls 17 of them back in. How many children are left on the playground?
Solve this problem on the board by lining up the place values and using regrouping to break up the digit in the tens place to create enough ones to subtract.
