Double Digit Addition and Subtraction is a Grade 2 mathematics worksheet that builds fluency with adding and subtracting two-digit numbers. Students complete nine multiple-choice questions and one fill-in-the-blank equation, working through direct calculations such as 25 + 26 and 52 + 12, as well as a subtraction word problem about giving away pencils. The worksheet helps students select the correct operation, calculate sums and differences, and apply subtraction to a simple real-world situation. Multiple-choice options let teachers quickly identify calculation errors, while the fill-in-the-blank item checks whether students can produce an answer without selecting from choices. This free printable worksheet includes a complete answer key for independent practice, guided instruction, or a short skills check.

FAQs

What does the Double Digit Addition and Subtraction worksheet cover?

This Grade 2 worksheet practices adding and subtracting two-digit numbers through nine multiple-choice questions and one fill-in-the-blank equation. It also includes a subtraction word problem, so students apply the skill in context rather than solving equations only.

How can I use this worksheet to teach two-digit addition and subtraction?

Model how to identify whether each item requires addition or subtraction, then solve a sample two-digit equation while discussing the tens and ones. Have students explain how they chose an answer for the pencil word problem and complete the fill-in-the-blank equation after guided practice.

What mistakes should I watch for when students complete this worksheet?

Watch for students choosing addition for the pencil word problem even though it asks how many are left, or selecting a nearby multiple-choice distractor after making an arithmetic error. Students may also confuse the tens and ones when adding or subtracting two-digit numbers, so check that their place values are handled consistently.

Wayground provides this worksheet as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz, and it includes a complete answer key for all 10 items. You can grade printable submissions by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app, or review responses from the digital quiz.

How can I differentiate this worksheet for my students?

In the worksheet’s Advanced Settings, adjust font spacing or font size to make the two-digit equations, answer choices, and fill-in-the-blank item easier to read. You can also turn on a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language when appropriate.
