Some kids might find subtraction difficult. If they are unable to understand the concept of carrying over, they can be intimidated by subtraction. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that at every step, kids know what they are doing. Identifying their areas of difficulties and helping them overcome it before moving on to tougher problems will help them immensely.
When parents and teachers first introduce kids to subtraction, it is best to do so using real-world problems and objects. For example, give kids 10 chocolates, take 2 away, and ask them how many are left.
