these bars and fill in numbers from the problem and label the bars.<br />

One-step word problems use one operation. New at second grade are two-step word<br />

problems (2.OA.1▲) that require students to complete two operations, which may<br />

include the same operation or opposite operations.<br />

Initially two-step problems should not involve the most difficult subtypes <strong>of</strong> problems<br />

(e.g., compare and start unknown problems) and should be limited to only single-digit<br />

addends. There are many problem situation subtypes and various ways to combine<br />

such subtypes to devise two-step problems. Introducing easier problems first will<br />

provide support for second grade students who are still developing pr<strong>of</strong>iciency with the<br />

compare and start unknown problems. (Adapted from Progressions K-5 OA 2011)<br />

The following table has examples <strong>of</strong> easy and middle-difficulty two-step word problems<br />

that would be appropriate.<br />

There are 15 stickers on the<br />

page. Brittany put some more<br />

stickers on the page and now<br />

there are 22. How many stickers<br />

did Brittany put on the page?<br />

15 + __ = 22<br />

22 – 15 = __<br />

There are 9 blue marbles and 6<br />

red marbles in the bag. Maria put<br />

in 8 more marbles. How many<br />

marbles are in the bag now?<br />

9 + 6 + 8 = __ or<br />

(9 + 6) + 8 = __<br />

There are 39 peas on the plate.<br />

Carlos ate 25 peas. Mother put 7<br />

more peas on the plate. How<br />

many peas are on the plate now?<br />

39 – 25 + 7 = or<br />

(39 – 25) + 7 = __<br />

Second graders use a range <strong>of</strong> methods, <strong>of</strong>ten mastering more complex strategies such<br />

as making tens and doubles and near doubles that were introduced in grade one for<br />

problems involving single-digit addition and subtraction. Second grade students also<br />

begin to apply their understanding <strong>of</strong> place value to solve problems:<br />

The Mathematics Framework was adopted by the <strong>California</strong> State Board <strong>of</strong> <strong>Education</strong> on November 6,<br />

2013. The Mathematics Framework has not been edited for publication.
