Math Strategies Posters Addition and Subtraction Strategies

Teaching your students how to add and subtract can be really, really hard! I am always trying to find concrete ways to help the concepts stick, and one strategy never works for every single student in my class. We use many, many strategies throughout the year and I found myself always drawing the new strategy up on the board during our mini-lesson. I finally turned those drawings into posters!

⭐Try these addition & subtraction strategy task cards to help your students practice their math strategies!

These math strategy posters are perfect to use as a reference in your classroom as your students are learning addition and subtraction. Hang the posters on a bulletin board, use them during a mini-lesson, or print multiple to a page to use as a personal reference guide for your students. 34 posters are included, both for addition and subtraction!

*To reduce the size of the posters, you can change your printer settings before printing.
