Abraham Lincoln - Two-Digit Subtraction Craftivity

By Rachel Thiry

I Honestly Enjoy Subtraction!  is a differentiated math craftivity.  Students will delight in the opportunity to create their own Honest Abe math booklet.

Students assemble Abraham Lincoln’s face, hat, and beard.  Attach the I honestly enjoy subtraction label to the hat. The cover of your subtraction booklet is ready.

Next, students work on each subtraction problem.  I like to copy the problems on different color paper.  By doing this, I can quickly determine where each student is currently working.  My students must show a different method for each subtraction problem. When each problem is finished correctly, they add another sheet to their Honest Abe booklet.

Here’s a little background…

During our multi-digit subtraction unit students are encouraged to explore and try a variety of methods.  Currently, our second grade students do not complete multi-digit subtraction following the standard algorithm.  We have worked on a variety of different methods: number line, expanded form, ten sticks and ones, just to name a few.  

Why does our school encourage this variety?  Teachers at the middle school level were noticing that some students didn’t have firm grasp on place value.  To give our students a solid foundation, we have dedicated the early years of math number sense, place value, and exploration.

A blank page is included to create differentiated math problems.  Students with special needs complete problems that I create at their just right level.

When the subtraction problems are finished staple the sheets behind Abe Lincoln’s face and you’re done.
