Speed practice on partitioning for Year 2 maths, in three levels. The warm-up covers standard partitions such as 24 = 20 + __, the level-up moves to tricky partitions like 45 = 30 + __, and the challenge asks number line questions such as whether 39 is closer to 30 or 40. Worked solutions cover every section. Matches two England National Curriculum place value objectives.
Number - number and place value
“Recognise the place value of each digit in a two-digit number (tens, ones)”
The warm-up and level-up sections are all partitioning, standard then non-standard.
Number - number and place value
“Identify, represent and estimate numbers using different representations, including the number line”
The challenge section works midpoints and nearest-ten estimates on a number line.
Straightforward partitions such as 24 = 20 + __ and 4 tens + 6 ones.
Non-standard splits like 45 = 30 + __ that push past tens-and-ones habits.
Midpoints and closeness questions, such as halfway between 40 and 50.
Worked solutions for all three sections.
