These year 2 maths worksheets are differentiated and suitable for KS1 learners. Each worksheet helps to develop children’s understanding of the expanded addition method. I’ve also included worksheets for year 2 learners that might struggle with these early steps and have instead created a worksheet based on adding with numicon. Inside this pack, you can find:
LA: Adding with numicon - Identifying different numbers and adding a one digit and two digit number using numicon.
LA: Expanded Addition Method - Using dienes to partition and add two digit numbers.
MA: Expanded Addition Method - Partitioning numbers and adding two digit numbers.
HA: Expanded Addition Method - Partitioning numbers and bridging through ten.
Help your Year 2 pupils deepen their understanding of place value with this set of differentiated worksheets focused on partitioning two-digit numbers. Designed to support a wide range of abilities, this resource uses visual dienes representations to build confidence and support fluency in number partitioning.
What’s included:
3 levels of differentiated worksheets – Lower (LA), Middle (MA), and Higher Ability (HA)
Clear visual support using dienes blocks for early learners
Extension questions to promote reasoning and explanation skills
Full set of answers included for easy marking or self-assessment
Children are encouraged to:
Recognise tens and ones using dienes
Partition numbers visually and numerically
Move from supported tasks to abstract partitioning
Justify and explain their reasoning for greater depth
This resource is ideal for:
Daily maths lessons
Place value units
Early intervention
Homework or revision activities
Whether you’re introducing partitioning or reinforcing place value understanding, these worksheets support mastery through structured differentiation and progression.

These are Lord of the Rings (J.R.R. Tolkien) maths cards which can be played in pairs as part of a warm-up activity. These cards can be played by practicing maths skills and comparing with each other. The player who has the highest answer or the highest amount of sides on the their shapes wins the card. Children can keep playing until one player has all of the cards.
This is a warm-up activity for a lesson on number bonds. Children can have fun practicing their number bonds by fitting together the pieces of the puzzle. Inside, there are 5 different number bond puzzles:
• Adding number bonds to 10
• Adding number bonds to 20
• Adding number bonds to 100
• Subtracting number bonds from 20
• Mixed number bonds challenge puzzle
This resource offers a comprehensive lesson plan for a maths lesson based on solving word problems. This pack includes a Harry Potter themed powerpoint, with examples of one step and two step word problems. The powerpoint encourages children to highlight the important information and solve the problems with a partner. This pack also includes differentiated worksheets for varying abilities.
Inside this pack, there are 6 worksheets aimed at year 1 learners. Each worksheet is halloween themed and has opportunities for year 1 learners to add, subtract and colour the answers.
The following activities are included within the pack:
