Start Grade 2 Quiz →What Your Second Grader Will Learn
Grade 2 builds on first grade foundations with more complex problems and new concepts. Second graders develop fluency with 2-digit numbers, start learning multiplication, and solve multi-step word problems. Our worksheets provide the structured practice students need to build confidence and speed.
Addition (Sums to 100)
Second graders master adding within 100, including 2-digit plus 2-digit with regrouping (carrying). They learn strategies like breaking numbers into tens and ones, using number lines, and applying the commutative property. Our worksheets gradually increase in difficulty from simple 2-digit addition to problems requiring regrouping.
Subtraction (Within 100)
Subtraction becomes more challenging in second grade with 2-digit problems and regrouping (borrowing). Students learn to check their subtraction by adding, understand the relationship between addition and subtraction, and solve word problems involving "how many more" and "difference" concepts.
Introduction to Multiplication
Second grade is when most students first encounter multiplication! They learn that multiplication is repeated addition and start memorizing basic times tables (2s, 5s, 10s especially). Understanding multiplication now sets students up for success in third grade and beyond.
Place Value & Number Sense
Understanding place value is critical in second grade. Students learn that the "2" in 24 represents 20 (two tens), while the "4" represents 4 ones. They practice skip counting by 2s, 5s, 10s, and even 100s, and compare numbers using greater than/less than symbols.
Money Math
Second graders work with all common coins and bills, count mixed groups of money, make change, and solve real-world shopping problems. Money math connects arithmetic to daily life and helps students understand the practical value of math skills. Available in 5 currencies with more coming soon.
