Great way to reinforce subtraction factsOct 22, 2010
By EricaS
This is a great way for kids to practice their substraction so that it becomes second hand to them. But they are having so much fun guessing where the adventure is going to end up that they forget they are doing math! This is a great book as is the Addition Adventures. I'd highly recommend them for 1st and 2nd graders.

Great for practicing subtraction!Nov 29, 2010
By Ginger
I bought Subtraction Secrets to give my 5 and 7 year olds something fun to practice their subtraction facts. They have really enjoyed this book!
There are 30 different puzzles, each with a different goal. I.e., Subtraction Secret #22 has you navigate your way through alien spaceships to find the one that is friendly. To figure out which one you need to get to, you do 24 different subtraction problems. You start at a star on the map and then solve the problems. Each subtraction problem tells you which direction you need to go from the square you were at before. Once each problem and direction is completed, you have solved the secret. The back of the book has an answer key so children can check their answers.
Besides finding friendly aliens, there are also puzzles for finding treasure, kittens, gold, a pet snake, a dog, chocolate candy in a room, and more!
You'll want to make sure your children know North, East, South, West before starting these puzzles as the directions tell you N,E,S,W as to which direction to move your line to next.
I highly recommend this book as a fun and encouraging way for children to reinforce their subtraction facts!
Engaging Way to Practice Subtraction FactsMay 15, 2011

"homeschooling mom"
My kindergartner *LOVES* this book! He actually asks to do it for fun even after the formal part of our homeschooling day is over. The "map" aspect is really engaging, and I've noticed a big improvement in the speed in which he can solve the equations as a result of working through this book. Highly recommended!
