Several weeks ago, I wrote a blog post with a free addition worksheet compilation for kindergarten and preschool. With that in mind, I thought that my blog would not be complete without a subsequent post that gives you kindergarten subtraction worksheets for your children 🙂 I hope that these free subtraction worksheets will enable your kids to practice and learn their math skills more fully.

 

 

I love how simple and colorful this kindergarten subtraction worksheet is! It is both simple and visual for young learners which can be a fun way to learn basic subtraction skills.

 

 

Again, this kindergarten subtraction worksheet is perfect for introducing subtraction concepts to your kindergarten child, especially since it includes familiar objects and fun designs 🙂

 

 

 

 

This worksheet enables your kindergarten student to color each group of objects before solving the subtraction problems. It is both visual and simple, once again.

 

 

 

 

 

This kindergarten subtraction worksheet will enable you to challenge your littles once they get comfortable with the more visual worksheets. It may look a little more intimidating since it does not have pictures, but it still is not super complicated. If you don’t think that your kindergarten student is quite ready for it, then there are plenty of other options that may be more of a stepping stone.

 

 

This worksheet has a fun little twist since it asks your student to create their own subtraction problem 🙂

 

 

 

This worksheet is a little different since there are sometimes different answers to the equations 🙂 Though it may be a little confusing at first, I think it will give young students a fun way to look at subtraction a little differently, in a good way.

 

 

 

 

This worksheet introduces the vertical subtraction problems. It has the visual elements that can also be colored, and it contains numbers that are still smaller.

 

 

 

This kindergarten subtraction worksheet brings in some fine motor skills since you are encouraged to cut out the numbers in the boxes at the bottom and glue them under the subtraction problems where they belong.

 

 

 

Here is a worksheet that uses the “missing numbers” approach with the opportunity to create your own subtraction problems. There are different answers to these problems, and your child has the opportunity to be creative.

 

 

 

Again, this worksheet is a little different. It asks students to solve the subtraction problems then match the answers that are the same. It is a fun spin on a basic kindergarten subtraction worksheet.

 

 

 

Here is a deeper look at double digit subtraction which could definitely be a challenge for some students since it is definitely a new concept after only doing single digit. Nevertheless, these numbers are still small enough to count if your young learners find it difficult at the beginning. Honestly, this worksheet is probably better for grade one, but I thought I would go ahead and include it just in case it may be helpful for some 🙂

 

 

The number line is beautifully introduced in this kindergarten subtraction worksheet. Having that visual element can be so fun and helpful!

 

 

Here’s a fun and simple kindergarten subtraction word problem worksheet 😉 Word problems can be a great tool for helping your children to really connect the dots with math concepts. It is one thing to see the numbers on a page, but it is another thing to understand how those numbers can truly be applied in their lives.

 

 

Once again, this worksheet may be a little more challenging for some kindergarten students, but if you feel like they are ready to combine addition and subtraction problems and think through the differences between the two, this worksheet may be the perfect challenge for your child! It may even be a good exercise for the months near the end of kindergarten 🙂

 

 

There you have it 🙂 This post has given you 25+ free kindergarten worksheets to help your littles gain some extra practice with learning subtraction. I really enjoyed putting this post together and sincerely hope that it will be helpful for you and your family. Whether you are trying to find an educational activity for your child who is having a hard time finding ways to fill his summer days or if you are trying to get ready for the fall with school starting, I hope that these worksheets will enable your kindergartener to feel more confident in his subtraction skills!

I would love to encourage you that if your young mathematicians are struggling with their subtraction math worksheets, regular practice is what will help your young students truly master the basic subtraction skills. Repetition will be the key. Don’t stress too much if your kindergarten child is having a hard time. It happens, and this too will pass! You are seen and loved and not alone, mama.
