Ten Happy Hens: A book about Subtraction (Take From)
James Burnett, Calvin Irons, Jodi Holte-Smith
Ten Happy Hens: A book about Subtraction (Take From) uses a language-rich approach of rhythm, rhyme, and repetition to engage children with maths concepts and support key literacy skills.
The concept of subtraction can be categorised as one of three types: take away, missing addend, or difference. Ten Happy Hens introduces take-away subtraction through the disappearance of hens from the chicken coop.
