About this resource
Description
Place value gets interesting when a number is built in more than one way. This tens and ones match worksheet helps second graders see that 46 can be 4 tens and 6 ones, but it can also be 3 tens and 16 ones. Trading ten ones for one ten is the big idea behind regrouping, and it is the step students need before they add and subtract with larger numbers.
In Part A, students count the base ten blocks in five pictures. Most pictures show more than nine ones, so students must trade ten ones for a ten before they draw a line to the matching number. In Part B, students read three tens-and-ones phrases, such as 6 tens and 12 ones, and write the number each one makes in the box. Use it as independent practice, a math center task, or a quick check after a place value lesson.
What’s Included
- One printable 2nd grade place value worksheet (PDF)
- Part A: five base ten block pictures to match to two-digit numbers
- Part B: three tens-and-ones phrases to write as numbers
- A complete answer key
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, it builds number sense instead of a shortcut. A student who only reads the digits will get stuck, so the sheet pushes every child to think about what a ten really is. Second, the base ten pictures are drawn to scale, with every rod showing exactly ten cubes and the extra ones stacked in fives, so students can count accurately. Third, this 2nd grade regrouping tens worksheet prepares students for addition and subtraction with regrouping, where trading ten ones for a ten happens in every problem.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Hand out real base ten blocks and have students build each picture, then trade ten cubes for a rod and see the number appear. Pair this tens and ones match worksheet with a quick warm-up where you say a number like 52 and ask for two different ways to make it. At home, use pennies and dimes: ten pennies trade for one dime, just like ten ones trade for one ten. Check the answer key together and talk about any picture that was tricky.
