Add & Subtract with Dienes within 100

Year 2 - Number - addition and subtraction
Solve problems with addition and subtraction using concrete objects and pictorial representations, including those involving numbers, quantities and measures.

‘Dienes’ refer to base-ten blocks used to introduce place value, addition, and subtraction. Dienes that pupils can manipulate with their hands are common in most elementary classrooms with the rods for 10s & squares for units etc.

Students now see the Dienes to be added or subtracted, and with simple mental arithmetic add (or subtract) the rods (10s) and the units (1s) to obtain the solution. This is where it begins.

The next step is to perform calculations where there is a need for ‘regrouping’ units into 10s for addition and ‘borrowing’ from the 10s to the units for subtraction.

This transition from physical Dienes to Dienes on paper will then provide a good foundation to move onto addition and subtraction without the need for visual support.

Worksheets & Digital Teaching Resources

Addition
Both the worksheets & teaching resources are set at two levels:

1. The sum of the units are always below 10

2. The solutions require regrouping of 10 ones as 1 ten.

Subtraction

Both the worksheets & teaching resources are again set at two levels.

1. No borrowing is required, the minuend is always larger than the subtrahend.

2. The minuend is always smaller than the subtrahend, so the solution requires borrowing from the 10s to the units
