Counting back is the preliminary stage before subtracting 'in your head'. These worksheets ask your child to count back from numbers up to 20. At first they will probably use fingers or other maths material to count back, but as they gain confidence they will begin to use mental methods and begin to know the answers, ' off by heart'. This is the latest in our great range of fun maths activities which will quickly help your child become confident with number and enjoy their maths.
