About this worksheet

Two-digit addition is not just a larger version of basic facts. A child has to track tens and ones at the same time, and regrouping asks them to exchange ten ones for one ten without losing the value of the number. Many second graders add all the digits they see or forget that the tens column counts groups of ten. This worksheet gives repeated practice with two-digit addends, but the prompts rotate through equations, expanded form, missing addends, regrouping decisions, and word problems. That mix helps reveal whether a child understands the structure rather than memorizing one layout. Encourage your child to say the numbers as tens and ones before adding. Accurate language often prevents column mistakes during independent work.

What your child will learn

  • Add two two-digit numbers
  • Decide when regrouping is needed
  • Use expanded form to add tens and ones
  • Solve two-digit addition word problems

Worked example

For 46 + 38, add 40 + 30 to get 70 and 6 + 8 to get 14. Then 70 + 14 = 84.

Common mistake

Adding digits without their place value, such as treating four tens as four ones.

Helpful hint

Add tens with tens and ones with ones.
