Stamp Game Subtraction Task Cards

The Stamp Game is an incredibly versatile material! Whether you’re introducing whole number place value relationships or one of the four operations, the Stamp Game beautifully supports you and the child.

This material incorporates the traditional Montessori hierarchical colors of green (units and thousands), blue (tens), and red (hundreds). In terms of sequence, this material is presented after the child has been introduced to the decimal system using the Golden Bead material which is far more concrete in nature. It is important to guide the child to the association between the literal value of the golden beads and the abstract representation of the stamps.

When introducing or practicing place values using the Stamp Game, the Decimal Board material can be a wonderful accompaniment.

In this set you will find:

Before using, I suggest printing this material on cardstock, cutting out the pieces using the dotted line guides, and laminating everything.
