How to help with this skill

Second graders connect place value to addition, subtraction and familiar everyday situations. Encourage grouping into tens and ones.

  • Start with the larger addend and count on, or group numbers by place value.
  • Line up tens, hundreds, and ones when adding multi-digit numbers.
  • Check by subtracting one addend from the total.

Try this: Ask: Which two amounts are being combined? Draw a quick model if needed.
