Grade 2, Lesson 15: Adding Within 1000

Math skill: Add Within 1000 (2.NBT.B.7)

How the beat teaches it: Every slot adds two three-digit numbers — add each place separately, then build the total's hundreds, tens, and ones as their own rows.

This is lesson 15 of 23 in RockBlocks Math, Grade 2, a free course where every lesson turns a math idea into something you can count, hear, and play. The previous lesson, Adding Four Two-Digit Numbers,” covered add Up To Four Two-Digit Numbers (2.NBT.B.6). Next is Lesson 16, Subtracting Within 1000.”

Every slot above (A, B, C, D) is its own question, and it’s a real, blank RockBlocks beat the whole time — the same drag-and-drop tiles, kit, tempo, sheet music, and drummer view as anywhere else on the site. Tap ❓ Questionin the corner to read the current slot’s problem, build your answer right in the grid, then tap ✓ Check Answerto grade it. Once you’re done, keep going: expand the beat, drop it into a Stack, or save a copy to your own page — nothing here overwrites the lesson itself, so every visitor still starts from the same blank slots.
