About this worksheet
Six subtraction word problems for Year 2 pupils who need more support, with numbers up to 50. Each problem sits beside a picture to count or cross out and a bar model, and pupils fill in a ___ - ___ = ___ number sentence. Sam gives away 5 of his 16 stickers, and a class eats 7 of 19 apples. Then 12 of 25 children get off a bus. The last part has 46 tennis balls taken in two goes and a ribbon question where Aisha says 30 cm is left from 50 cm. The answers give a number sentence and a mental method for each.
