In this unit, students continue to expand their understanding of addition and subtraction from their work in Kindergarten and Grade 1. In Grade 1 students solved word problems within 20. They now extend that ability to use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve one- and two-step problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all position. This is the first time they will have dealt with two-step problems. As in Grade 1, they will use drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem. It is in second grade that students will be expected to master all types of problems as listed above, including the more difficult problem types introduced in Grade 1.
A question is essential when it stimulates multi-layered inquiry, provokes deep thought and lively discussion, requires students to consider alternatives and justify their reasoning, encourges re-thinking of big ideas, makes meaningful connections with prior learning, and provides students with opportunities to apply problem-solving skills to authentic situations.

AVAILABLE MODEL LESSON PLANS
The lesson plan(s) have been written with specific standards in mind. Each model lesson plan is only a MODEL - one way the lesson could be developed. We have NOT included any references to the timing associated with delivering this model. Each teacher will need to make decisions related ot the timing of the lesson plan based on the learning needs of students in the class. The model lesson plans are designed to generate evidence of student understanding.
This chart indicates one or more lesson plans which have been developed for this unit. Lesson plans are being written and posted on the Curriculum Management System as they are completed. Please check back periodically for additional postings.
Addition within 100
CCSC Alignment: 2.OA.A.1
Students work in small groups to create addition problems from real life situations and stories. They justify and model their solutions using place value blocks. Student also discuss the possible strategies that could be used to solve the problems.
AVAILABLE MODEL LESSON SEEDS
The lesson seed(s) have been written with specific standards in mind. These suggested activity/activities are not intended to be prescriptive, exhaustive, or sequential; they simply demonstrate how specific content can be used to help students learn the skills described in the standards. Seeds are designed to give teachers ideas for developing their own activities in order to generate evidence of student understanding.
