Math: Fact family worksheet. Due Friday. 

Math: 

We will be finishing fact families and working on subtraction this week. 

Fact Families: Fact families are a set of four math facts that use the same three numbers and show the relationship between adding and subtracting.      

        You use all three numbers in each question. It is important to remember that with subtraction you start with the largest number. 

EX:                                                                  12,  8 , 4

8 + 4 = 12

4 + 8 = 12

12 – 4 = 8

12 – 8 = 4
