This worksheet is best used as independent practice for your addition strategies lesson.

Students will solve a number sentence by regrouping base-10 blocks and then draw a picture of their regrouping.

In addition to individual student work time, use this regrouping worksheet as a:

  • Math center activity
  • Post-lesson exit ticket 
  • Homework assignment
  • Whole-class review (via smartboard)

Got fast finishers? Students who need a challenge can use the base-10 blocks model to solve their own 2-digit addition problems. 

Students needing extra support can use base-10 blocks to represent the numbers and solve the problems.
