In this 2nd-grade math lesson, students will learn about addition and the concept of regrouping. The lesson begins with a review of basic addition skills, gradually introducing the need for regrouping when adding two-digit numbers. Through direct instruction, students will observe a step-by-step demonstration of a two-digit addition problem involving regrouping, utilizing visual aids such as base ten blocks.
Following this, students will engage in guided practice, working in pairs to solve similar addition problems and share their methods with the class. They will then complete an independent practice worksheet focused on two-digit addition problems that require regrouping, reinforcing their understanding.
The lesson concludes with a recap of key concepts and an exit ticket activity where students reflect on their learning. Assessment will occur through observation during practice, review of completed worksheets, and evaluation of exit tickets to measure comprehension. Differentiation strategies will be implemented to support diverse learners, and a subsequent lesson will build on these skills by introducing subtraction with regrouping.
