A bright and engaging set of 8 Subtraction Anchor Charts designed for children working within Early Level Curriculum for Excellence, particularly Primary 1.

This colourful, child-friendly resource introduces subtraction through clear visual models and practical examples. Pupils explore subtraction as taking away, finding how many are left, counting backwards, finding one less and finding the difference. They also begin to make connections between addition and subtraction through simple fact families.

Each poster uses large numbers, familiar objects, number lines and simple mathematical vocabulary to make early subtraction accessible and memorable.
