Boxed Difference Practice

This worksheet provides students with boxed vertical subtraction problems that focus on subtracting by 6. Each problem is neatly organized inside a grid, helping students align numbers correctly and reduce computational errors. The repeated use of 6 as the subtrahend builds familiarity with subtraction patterns and strengthens mental-math fluency. Students practice recognizing number relationships and develop automaticity through high-volume repetition. The structured boxes support learners who benefit from visual organization during computation. This worksheet works well for independent practice, fluency building, or math intervention groups. It reinforces foundational subtraction mastery important for future multi-digit subtraction tasks.
