It's time for the next post in my "12 Days of Christmas Printables" series! Today I am sharing some fun practice pages to work on a concept that I get asked about again and again: addition and subtraction with regrouping. Hopefully if you are reviewing adding and subtracting large numbers before Christmas break, this set of maze challenges will be a fun change of pace! Read on to learn more about this fun "self-checking" activity. *Please Keep Reading...
