Using base-ten materials and place-value skills, 2nd graders gain a better understanding of how to add and subtract numbers.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Put It Together and Take It Apart
Second graders increase their understanding of place value by manipulating larger numbers.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: How Big Is a Mile?
How far do I have to walk in order to make 1 mile? Learners measure, add, and figure it out.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Bigger or Smaller
Second grade students are asked to apply two complementary processes: counting and grouping. The conceptual understanding of the place value of a number and combining/separating numbers using place value, are critical aspects of...
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Larger Number Patterns
Second graders can find patterns in 4-digit numbers that will help them when counting over decades and centuries.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Moving Into Thousands
To make sense of numbers in the thousands, 2nd grade students need practice identifying place value positions and using place value strategies in numbers to 1,000.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Time and Money
As the result of a Unit assessment, it was found that students showed some confusion with writing time and with adding sets of coins. These skills need to be reviewed to aid in mastery of the Common Core standards for time and money.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Making Change Using Partners of One Hundred
Using dimes to make change is another way to work with subtracting tens within 100.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Subtracting With Partners of 100
When subtracting ten from a 2 digit number, 2nd graders should be able to compute the answer as fluently and comfortably as do when they add ten to a 2 digit number.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: More Dimes and Dollars
Second graders need practice using coins and dollars and relating them to ones, tens and hundreds. Common Core standards include counting by 10s and 100s.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Balancing and Comparing Data
The connection between subjects is an important one to establish for students. Communicating across subjects is part of the Common Core expectations.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Change Unknown Word Problems With Number Lines
Second graders solve change unknown story problems using a number line. This lesson gives students a new strategy to attach change unknown word problems.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Mentally Speaking!
Using base ten blocks and place value, 2nd graders explore how to become more fluent in adding and subtracting two-digit numbers without regrouping.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Patterns Make Ten
This lesson builds a foundation for adding larger numbers which is supported by the Common Core standards for second grade.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: We Can Guess the Number
Understanding place value is critical to the Common Core Standards for second grade. Without a concrete understanding, 2nd graders may not fully grasp the meaning of the digits.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Hundreds, Tens, Ones Are Coins Too
Second graders will extend their understanding of hundreds, tens and ones using dollars, dimes and pennies as another way to express groups of 100, 10 and 1.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Moving Along in Tens
Grouping by tens reinforces the understanding of place value
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Identifying Tens and Ones
Second graders will be given set amount of money to add, and identify how many tens and ones.
Better Lesson
Better Lesson: Using Models to Add and Subtract
Common Core standards encourage the use of models to build understanding in math. This instructional activity shows sometimes reluctant 2nd graders that models are helpful tools in solving mathematical problems.
