Hot Cocoa and Marshmallows: Sweet Subtracting from 10 Worksheets

Fun and cozy worksheets to help your kiddos with subtracting from 10. They read the math equation and then determine how many marshmallows are left in the mug of hot chocolate.

They can either answer the problem by coloring in the number (out of 3 choices) or they can write the correct number in the box for extra writing practice.

Kindergarten Math Skills include:

• subtracting
• breaking up 10
• number recognition
• number sense
• subitizing

Math Standards

K.CC.B.5
Count to answer “how many?” questions about as many as 20 things arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scattered configuration; given a number from 1-20, count out that many objects.

SK.CC.B.4b
Understand that the last number name said tells the number of objects counted. The number of objects is the same regardless of their arrangement or the order in which they were counted.

K.CC.B.4a
When counting objects, say the number names in the standard order, pairing each object with one and only one number name and each number name with one and only one object.

K.CC.B.4
Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality.

K.CC.A.3
Write numbers from 0 to 20. Represent a number of objects with a written numeral 0-20 (with 0 representing a count of no objects).

Subtraction from 10 Worksheets

Using Google Slides for Math Practice

Students read a number sentence and then count the marshmallows to see how many they need to take from 10.

Students then click the number to show how many to subtract from ten to make the new number in the equation.

Digital practice on Google Slides can be assigned through Google Classroom, SeeSaw, or other online learning platforms.
