How to help with this skill

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

  • Identify the starting amount and the part being removed or compared.
  • Use counting back, a number line, or place-value regrouping.
  • Check by adding your answer to the amount removed.

Try this: Ask: What was there at the beginning, and what changed?
