➕ Addition up to 99

Class 2 Maths · Unit 2 of 11 · about 120 minutes

This unit builds on the place value work from Numbers up to 100. Children add two-digit numbers without carrying using bundles of tens and ones, then move to adding with carrying by regrouping ten ones into one ten. They use the column method and solve simple word problems from daily life, with sums up to 99.

What your child will learn

  • Students will be able to add two-digit numbers without carrying using bundles of tens and ones and the column method.
  • Students will be able to add two-digit numbers with carrying by regrouping ten ones into one ten.
  • Students will be able to solve one-step word problems involving addition of two-digit numbers up to 99.

Lessons in this unit

  1. Adding without carrying: Add two-digit numbers where the sum of ones is less than 10. Use bundles of tens and ones and the column method.
  2. Adding with carrying: Add two-digit numbers where the sum of ones is 10 or more. Regroup ten ones into one ten and carry it to the tens column.
  3. Word problems: Solve one-step addition word problems from daily life, using the column method or bundles. Identify the operation as addition.

What to watch for

Adding tens first and then ones (e.g., 34+25 = 50+9 = 59) is okay, but they might forget to add the ones.
Help: Always add ones first, then tens. Use the column method.
Forgetting to add the carry to the tens (e.g., 28+35 = 53 instead of 63).
Help: Always add the carry after adding the tens. Practice with bundles.
Adding the tens and ones separately without regrouping when needed (e.g., 28+35 = 53).
Help: Use the column method and remember to carry.
Writing the sum of ones in the tens column (e.g., 34+25 = 79).
Help: Use graph paper or lined columns. Ones under ones, tens under tens.

Try this at home

  • Bundles: show 34 as 3 tens 4 ones; add 4 + 5 = 9 ones, then 3 + 2 = 5 tens; 34 + 25 = 59
  • Bundles: 28 + 35 (regroup 10 ones into 1 ten)
  • Adding two quantities: 'Kabir has 23 marbles and gets 14 more.'
  • Column method: 42 + 36 with ones under ones; 2 + 6 = 8, then 4 + 3 = 7; answer 78

Quick questions to ask aloud

  1. What is 34 + 25? (59 / 49 / 79 / 14)
    Show answerAdd ones: 4+5=9. Add tens: 3+2=5. So 34+25=59.
  2. What is 28 + 35? (63 / 53 / 513 / 83)
    Show answerAdd ones: 8+5=13. Write 3, carry 1. Add tens: 1+2+3=6. So 28+35=63.
  3. Kabir has 23 marbles. His friend gives him 14 more. How many marbles does he have in all? (37 / 27 / 47 / 9)
    Show answerHe gets more marbles, so we add. 23+14=37.
