The Subtraction Snake Game (C 362) is the subtraction counterpart to the classic addition snake game, using colored bead bars and a black snake to help children practice finding complements and working toward subtraction fact memorization through a concrete, kinesthetic process. It is intended for children in the 5 to 7 range who have solid addition snake game experience and are ready to formalize their understanding of subtraction as a distinct operation. Having this material staged alongside its addition counterpart allows you to offer a natural, self-directed progression through the memorization sequence.
