Learning objective

What this practice builds

Add two-digit numbers when the ones make 10 or more by regrouping 10 ones as 1 ten.

47 + 38=85

Worked example

Show the thinking, not only the answer

The ones total 15, so regroup 10 ones as 1 new ten.

  1. Add ones7 + 8 = 15. Write 5 ones and regroup 10 ones as 1 ten.
  2. Add tensAdd 4 tens + 3 tens + the regrouped ten = 8 tens.
  3. Check47 is about 50 and 38 is about 40, so 85 is a reasonable sum near 90.

Common mistakes and useful responses

Dropping the regrouped ten

Circle or lightly mark the new ten above the tens column, then include it when adding the tens.

Writing 15 in the ones place

Ask how many ones can stay in one place. Keep 5 ones and exchange the other 10 ones for 1 ten.

Suggested sequence

Use the worksheet with purpose

  1. 1

    Exchange physically

    Trade 10 one-units for a ten rod before using the written method.

    Connect the exchange to the small regrouped 1 above the tens column.

  3. 3

    Include larger sums

    Show that two two-digit addends can total three digits, such as 68 + 57 = 125.
