Grade 2 Math · Computation and Estimation
Virginia SOL 2.CE.1
Virginia SOL 2.CE.1 is part of the Computation and Estimation strand in Grade 2 Math (Math). Under this Standards of Learning objective, students recall addition and subtraction facts within 20 and solve single-step and multistep problems using addition and subtraction with whole numbers up to 100. Below is what 2.CE.1 covers in plain language, the specific skills it is assessed on, the key concepts to review, and how to practice 2.CE.1 for the Virginia SOL test.
What SOL 2.CE.1 means
Recall addition and subtraction facts within 20 and solve single-step and multistep problems using addition and subtraction with whole numbers up to 100.
Skills you’ll practice for 2.CE.1
- Apply strategies (e.g., rounding, compatible numbers) to estimate solutions for single-step addition or subtraction problems.
- Apply strategies (e.g., concrete models, place value, properties of addition) to determine the sum or difference of two whole numbers up to 100.
- Represent, solve, and justify solutions to single-step and multistep contextual problems involving addition or subtraction of whole numbers up to 100.
- Demonstrate fluency with addition and subtraction within 20 by applying reasoning strategies (e.g., doubles, near doubles, make-a-ten).
- Recall with automaticity addition and subtraction facts within 20.
- Use patterns, models, and strategies to make generalizations about algebraic properties for fluency.
- Determine the missing number in an equation with addition and subtraction within 20.
- Use inverse relationships to write all related facts connected to a given addition or subtraction fact model within 20.
- Describe the not equal symbol as representing a relationship where expressions on either side represent different values and justify reasoning.
