Grade 2 Subtraction With Regrouping Practice Worksheet
About This Resource
A 2-page independent practice worksheet for Grade 2 students learning to subtract two-digit numbers with regrouping, with a warm-up, block-supported problems, a full page of column-method practice, and a short reflection section.
Overview
The worksheet opens with a short warm-up of subtraction problems, some needing regrouping and some not, so students practise checking the ones digits first. It then moves to a small set of problems paired with base-10 block pictures before a full page of vertical column-method practice, and closes with a short "Explain Your Thinking" reflection where students describe their process in their own words. The mix of block-supported and abstract problems makes this worksheet suitable as either guided or independent practice, depending on how much support a class still needs.

Grade 2 Subtraction With Regrouping — Complete Topic Bundle — ฿99 one-timeStudent Task
- Use this worksheet after Lesson 2 of the Lesson Plan, once students have seen the written method modelled at least once. It works well as independent practice following whole-class teaching, though the warm-up section can also be done together as a class check before students continue independently. Review the "Common Errors to Watch For While Grading" section in the answer key before marking, since it flags the most frequent regrouping mistakes at this stage.
Classroom Use
- Error Hunt: write one correctly regrouped problem and one problem with a common regrouping mistake (such as forgetting to reduce the tens) on the board. Ask pairs to identify which is correct and explain what went wrong in the incorrect one.
Differentiation
SUPPORT: Reduce the number of required problems, allow continued use of base-10 blocks alongside the written method, and provide the sentence frame "I traded 1 ten for 10 ones because ___" for the reflection section.
ON-LEVEL: Complete all sections independently using the written method, referring to block pictures only where they are provided.
CHALLENGE: Complete the worksheet, then write one original subtraction problem of their own that requires regrouping and solve it, showing all steps.
Answer Key & Assessment
Completed worksheet, reviewed against the included answer key, with particular attention to whether students show their regrouping rather than only writing a final answer.
Learning Objectives
- Students will be able to determine whether a two-digit subtraction problem requires regrouping.
- Students will be able to use base-10 block pictures to support written subtraction with regrouping.
- Students will be able to solve two-digit subtraction problems with regrouping using the column method.
- Students will be able to describe, in writing, how they solved a subtraction problem with regrouping.
Teacher Tips
Have early finishers check one of their own answers by adding the difference back to the number they subtracted (for example, checking 25 + 27 = 52 for the problem 52 − 27), rather than immediately moving to the next task — this reinforces the relationship between addition and subtraction while they wait for classmates.
