How we teach it
This is what sits under the answer sheets in the app — the same cards, clips and lessons your child sees after a question.
More lessons for this topic are on the way.
One question, as your child sees it
And the answer sheet that follows a second wrong try: what we know, what we need, the steps, a check, the answer.
At 11 o'clock the temperature was 36°C. At 12 o'clock it was 40°C. What is the difference in degrees?
Your child types the answer on a number pad.
First hint: Take the smaller temperature away from the bigger one.
The answer sheet
40 - 36 = 4, so the difference is 4 degrees.
