Introduction
Please read the poem below about subtraction.
When subtracting-
If there's more on top do not stop.
If there's more on the floor, go next door.
If the numbers are the same, zero its name!
When subtracting-
If there's more on top do not stop.
If there's more on the floor, go next door.
If the numbers are the same, zero its name!

Regrouping Subtraction Video Song Lyrics
Regroup, regroup, subtraction.
All right class, we’re going to regroup with subtraction.
Come on let’s groove it in action.
Always begin the subtraction fun at the far right over there with the ones.
Always begin the subtraction fun at the far right over there with the ones.
When the number on top is smaller than below, it’s time to go with the regrouping flow.
When the number on top is smaller than below, it’s time to go with the regrouping flow.
Cross top left out, reduce by one, cross original out and have no doubt.
Add ten to the original. Subtract and look to do it again.
Always begin the subtraction fun at the far right over there with the ones.
Always begin the subtraction fun at the far right over there with the ones.
When the number on top is smaller than below, it’s time to go with the regrouping flow.
When the number on top is smaller than below, it’s time to go with the regrouping flow.
Now go to the top of the left position, cross the number out to begin the transition. Take it left now, take it left now, ohh left, ooh left, hey.
Reduce the cross top number by only one. Place it on top. We’re half way done!
