Year 2 Place Value Worksheets
15 worksheets across 3 weeks
Our free Year 2 Place Value worksheets develop a deep understanding of numbers to 100 for children aged 6-7, fully aligned to the England National Curriculum. Place value is the cornerstone of the entire number system. A child who truly understands that 47 means 4 tens and 7 ones has a far stronger foundation for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and all the number work that follows. These worksheets give children the daily practice they need to build this essential understanding securely. The 15 worksheets are organised across 3 weeks of structured daily practice. Week 1 focuses on numbers to 20, consolidating the place value understanding children developed in Year 1 and ensuring they can partition, compare, and order numbers within this range with confidence. Week 2 extends to numbers to 50, introducing children to a wider range of two-digit numbers and building their ability to identify tens and ones, count in steps of 2, 5, and 10, and find 10 more or 10 less. Week 3 progresses to numbers to 100, where children work with the full range of two-digit numbers and develop fluency with comparing, ordering, and representing numbers using place value equipment. Each worksheet includes fluency questions for rapid place value recognition, word problems that set place value in practical contexts such as counting objects, reading scales, or comparing quantities, and reasoning challenges where children explain their thinking, spot errors, or solve puzzles involving tens and ones. This structure ensures children develop both procedural skill and conceptual depth. Parents can reinforce place value at home by using everyday numbers. Ask your child how many tens and ones are in your house number, a page number, or a price label. Use coins, building bricks, or bundles of straws to make physical tens and ones. Teachers can use these worksheets as daily practice alongside practical place value lessons or as a diagnostic tool to identify children who need additional support. By completing these worksheets, children will confidently partition two-digit numbers into tens and ones, compare and order numbers to 100, count in steps of 2, 5, and 10, and find 10 more and 10 less than any given number. These are the foundational place value skills specified in the National Curriculum for Year 2 and essential for success in the KS1 SATs.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What place value skills should a Year 2 child know?
- Year 2 children should understand the place value of each digit in a two-digit number, compare and order numbers to 100 using < > and = signs, count in steps of 2, 5, and 10 from any number, identify 10 more and 10 less than any given number, and partition two-digit numbers in different ways.
- How many place value worksheets are available for Year 2?
- There are 15 worksheets covering three weeks: numbers to 20, numbers to 50, and numbers to 100. Each week has 5 daily worksheets with fluency, word problems, and reasoning.
- How do I help my child understand place value?
- Use physical objects to make the concept of tens and ones concrete. Bundle straws or lolly sticks into groups of ten, or use 10p and 1p coins to represent two-digit numbers. Ask your child to show you a number like 34 using their tens and ones, then ask questions such as what is 10 more or how many tens are there. A hundred square is also a valuable tool, as it helps children see the patterns in our number system. When your child writes a number, always check they understand what each digit represents, not just what the number looks like.
- What place value questions appear in the KS1 SATs?
- The KS1 SATs assess place value through questions that ask children to identify the value of digits in two-digit numbers, compare and order numbers using the correct symbols, complete number sequences, find 10 more or 10 less, and partition numbers in different ways. Some questions are straightforward calculations, while others require reasoning, such as explaining which digit has changed when 10 is added. Our worksheets prepare children for all of these question types across the three progressive weekly subtopics.
- When should my child be confident with numbers to 100?
- By the end of Year 2, children are expected to read, write, compare, and order numbers up to at least 100. They should understand the place value of each digit and be able to count forwards and backwards in ones, twos, fives, and tens from any starting number. Most children build this confidence gradually during Year 2 as they move from working with smaller numbers to the full range to 100. Our worksheets support this progression by starting with numbers to 20, then 50, and finally 100, giving children time to consolidate at each stage.
