A simple and engaging board game to practise mentally subtracting near-multiples of 10 from a number. There are two differentiated versions of the game: one for subtracting 9, and one for subtracting 19. Children move their counters around the board, performing each calculation that they land on and covering the answer on a grid. The first to cover their entire grid is the winner!

This game would be easy to adapt for other near-multiples of 10. It is suitable for Y2 and above.
