Monday: Take away tens, then ones

Donnie the Deer walks slowly through the meadow with his satchel.

He has gathered 58 bright leaves.

"I want to give 23 leaves to Bennie," he says softly.

"How many will I have left?"

Bennie the Bear sets out the leaves in bundles of ten.

"Take away tens, then ones," he says.

Learn it: tens from tens, ones from ones

Donnie has 5 tens and 8 ones. That is 58.

Base-ten blocks: 5 tens and 8 ones

He gives away 23. That is 2 tens and 3 ones.

Take away the tens: 50 - 20 = 30.

Take away the ones: 8 - 3 = 5.

Put them together: 30 + 5 = 35.

Base-ten blocks: 3 tens and 5 ones

Donnie has 35 leaves left.
