I can use the same 3 numbers to make a fact family and write related addition and subtraction facts.
A fact family is a group of facts that use the same 3 numbers.
Fact family rule
Example
If a fact family has 3 numbers, it usually has 4 facts.
Picture: Fact family triangle.
Tap to play and pause.
Put 8 objects on the table. Split them into two groups (example: 2 and 6). Say the four facts out loud, then write them.
Drag the pieces to make true equations. (Same 3 numbers!)
Use 2, 6, 8: build an addition fact.
Use 2, 6, 8: build the other addition fact.
Use 2, 6, 8: build a subtraction fact.
Use 2, 6, 8: build the other subtraction fact.
Use 4, 5, 9: build an addition fact.
Use 4, 5, 9: build the other addition fact.
Use 4, 5, 9: build a subtraction fact.
Use 4, 5, 9: build the other subtraction fact.
Tap the answer that makes the fact true.
