About this resource

Description

This three addends addition problem solving worksheet gives 2nd grade students practice adding three two-digit numbers inside real math stories. Children read each short story, find the three numbers that matter, and add them together to solve. Working with three addends builds number sense, helps kids spot ways to regroup, and prepares them to add up to four two-digit numbers, a key second grade standard.

The worksheet has five word problem cards. Each story has three two-digit addends with a sum up to 100, and most of them ask students to regroup in the ones column. Students write their answer with its unit, such as 73 apples, in the box beside each story. Use it as independent practice, a math center, a quick check after a lesson, or homework.

What’s Included

  • One printable page with five addition word problems
  • Three two-digit addends in every story, sums up to 100
  • Answer boxes for each problem with room for the unit
  • A complete answer key on page two

Why This Worksheet Helps Kids

This three addends addition problem solving worksheet helps in three ways. First, it connects adding three numbers to real situations, so students see why the math matters. Second, it strengthens regrouping, because most sums carry a ten from the ones place. Third, it builds careful reading habits, since children must pull the right numbers out of each story before they solve. These 2nd grade addition word problems grow both math and reading skills at the same time.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Invite students to draw a quick picture, use base-ten blocks, or write a number sentence before they fill in each box. Ask them to look for two numbers that are easy to add first, like 18 and 22. After they finish, have children share their strategy with a partner, then check their work with the answer key. You can also ask students to write their own three-addend story about something they like to collect.
