Skill Focus

Borrowing, also called regrouping, happens when a student needs to trade from the next place value to subtract. This worksheet gives practice with careful column subtraction so students can see when to borrow, where to write the new value, and how to check the difference.

How to Use This Worksheet

This worksheet works well as a short practice page rather than a long test. Have students line up place values carefully and show each regrouping step. Keep the focus on accuracy first, then use another worksheet later if the student needs more speed or confidence.

Ways to Use This Worksheet

For parents

Use it as short extra practice at home when your child needs more confidence with subtraction. One page at a time is usually enough for focused review.

For teachers

Print it for morning work, math centers, small-group review, homework, or a quick skill check for 5th grade students.

Pair the worksheet with a short lesson, manipulatives, or a whiteboard example, then save the answer key for easy checking.
