 The Brick Math FREE Lesson of the Month for March 2025 teaches students what subtraction is all about. It's from Brick Math Subtraction, and it's for early learners, giving them a concrete representation of what subtraction really means. To get this lesson, click here, and you'll also get a new free Brick Math lesson every month after that.  The lesson, "What Does It Mean to Subtract?" shows students very clearly how subtracting works, and also introduces the vocabulary of subtraction -- minuend, subtrahend, and difference. Students build models of simple subtraction problems, then draw them and explain the math shown in their models and drawings.  That's the procedure followed throughout the entire Brick Math curriculum. Students move from a concrete representation of the math to a more abstract representation by drawing the models, then finally to a fully abstract understanding of the math when they describe it in words. In this way, Brick Math helps students gain a deep, true understanding of math, which sets them up for future success as they move through the K-8 curriculum. This Lesson of the Month shows 2 pages from the Subtraction Teacher Edition first, and then the corresponding workbook pages for students to use from the companion Subtraction Student Edition.  The Brick Math curriculum is divided into 13 separate content areas: Counting, Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Basic Fractions, Basic Measurement, Fraction Multiplication, Fraction Division, Advanced Measurement and Geometry, Decimals, Data and Statistics, and Pre-Algebra. Students can start anywhere in the curriculum. Brick Math can be used as a complete math curriculum or brought in as a supplement to help students who aren't having math success with other programs.
