1. Counting down instead of subtracting

-Some students may think that subtraction means counting down from the larger number, so when asked to subtract 3 from 8, they might say 8, 7, 6, instead of correctly saying 5.

2. Ignoring place value

-Students may forget to consider place value when subtracting. For example, when subtracting 8 from 23, they might erroneously write 23 - 8 = 15 because they only subtracted the digits without considering the tens place.

3. Confusing subtraction with addition

-Some children might mistakenly think that subtraction is the same as addition, especially if they have only learned about adding numbers before. For instance, they might add 5 and 3 instead of subtracting 3 from 5 when asked to do so.

1.OA.C Add and subtract within 20.

1.OA.C.5 Relate counting to addition and subtraction (e.g., by counting on 2 to add 2).

1.OA.C.6 Add and subtract within 20, demonstrating fluency for addition and subtraction within 10. Use strategies such as counting on; making ten (e.g., 8 + 6 = 8 + 2 + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14); decomposing a number leading to a ten (e.g., 13 - 4 = 13 - 3 - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9); using the relationship between addition and subtraction (e.g., knowing that 8 + 4 = 12, one knows 12 - 8 = 4); and creating equivalent but easier or known sums (e.g., adding 6 + 7 by creating the known equivalent 6 + 6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13).

We will be doing 1st grade Subtraction

# data[].attributes.body
Hi Ladies,
Great start so far getting your minecraft lesson started.  Something to consider in teaching 1st grade is that reading readiness might vary drastically at this age.  Just something to consider!

I've shared a resource to get you inspired!  :)

Keep up the great work here. Learning/teaching math this way can be so fun!

1. Materials

-Minecraft Education Edition or Minecraft

-Computers or tablets with Minecraft installed

2. Steps

-Begin by discussing what subtraction is and its real-life applications. Explain that they will be using Minecraft to explore and practice subtraction today.

-Launch Minecraft and create a world or use an existing one that has been set up for educational purposes.

-Describe the Minecraft scene or adventure students will undertake, such as finding and collecting resources or solving puzzles using subtraction.

-Provide students with a specific task or adventure within Minecraft that requires subtraction. For example, they may need to collect a certain number of items or build structures with a target number of blocks.

3. By the end of the lesson, students will be able to subtract numbers within 20 using various strategies and understand the concept of subtraction in a Minecraft environment.
