About this worksheet
Adding a one-digit number to a two-digit number in a grid, sometimes making a new ten.
What kids practice
In first grade, adding within 100 means problems like 40 + 30, 52 + 20 and 46 + 7. Kids use what they know about tens and ones. Tens go with tens and ones go with ones. When the ones add up to 10 or more, those ones make a new ten.
Watch for
- Adding the one-digit number to the tens, so 46 + 7 becomes 116.
- Forgetting to carry the new ten when the ones add up to 10 or more.
- Writing 7 instead of 70 for 40 + 30.
It's free to print, with Fewer, Standard or More on the page and an answer key. See the full adding within 100 guide for 1st grade.
