4 IN A ROW game to practice
'Number bonds to 100' for 2nd grade

Addition - Number bonding - Number bonds to 100

Number bonding is a method for recognizing common combinations of numbers that add to a specific target number. In this topic we are looking at pairs of numbers that bond to 100. So, an obvious pair you might think of is:

50 + 50 = 100

Obviously there are many other multiples of 10 that also bond to 100:

40 + 60 = 100

80 + 20 = 100

10 + 90 = 100

One thing you will notice with the multiples of 10 is that we could knock off the final zero and think about number pairs that bond to 10. You will also notice that we can play around with these bonds to derive related facts - for instance:

30 + 70 = 100

100 = 70 + 30

100 - 70 = 30

100 - 30 = 70

Now, let's think about numbers which aern't multiples of 10 like 34 or 59. One way to quickly get their number bond pair to 100 is to work the units first and then figure out the tens. So, for 34, take the unit 4, bond it to 10 with a unit 6. This pushes the tens 3 to a tens 4. Now figure the tens bond of 4 to make 100 which is 6. So the answer is 66.

34 + ▢ = 100

30 + 4 + ▢ + 6 = 100

30 + 4 + 60 + 6 = 100

So, ... 34 + 66 = 100

Consider another example, say 22:

22 + ▢ = 100

20 + 2 + ▢ + 8 = 100

20 + 2 + 70 + 8 = 100

So, ... 22 + 78 = 100

So knowing your number bonds, or knowing how to quickly work out number bonds can massively speed up your mental arithmetic.

With our Four in a row math game you will be practicing the topic "Number bonds to 100" from 2nd grade / Addition / Number bonding. The math in this game consists of 22 questions that ask you to identify pairs of numbers that sum to a total of 100.

Four in a row is similar to the paper game "Noughts and crosses" but we have changed it into a one-person math learning / revision game. The aim of the game is to win 4 cells in a row from a grid of 16 cells.
