Skills/Standards (To teach and measure)

Number, Number Sense and Operations Standard K 123 4 5 6 7 8 9101112

1. Identify and generate equivalent forms of whole numbers; e.g., 36,

30 + 6, 9 x 4, 46 - 10, number of inches in a yard.

2. Use place value concepts to represent whole numbers and decimals using numerals, words, expanded notation and physical models. For example:

a.  Recognize 100 means “10 tens” as well as a single entity (1 hundred) through physical models and

     trading games.

    b. Describe the multiplicative nature of the number system; e.g., the structure of 3205 as 3 x 1000 plus 2

        x 100 plus 5 x 1.

    c. Model the size of 1000 in multiple ways; e.g., packaging 1000 objects into 10 boxes of 100, modeling

       a meter with centimeter and decimeter strips, or gathering 1000 pop-can tabs.

   d. Explain the concept of tenths and hundredths using physical models, such as metric pieces, base ten

        blocks, decimal squares or money.

3. Use mathematical language and symbols to compare and order; e.g., less than, greater than, at most, at least, <, >, =, ≤, ≥.

4. Count money and make change using coins and paper bills to ten dollars.

15. Evaluate the reasonableness of computations based upon operations and the numbers involved; e.g., considering relative size, place value and estimates.

3. Tell time to the nearest minute and find elapsed time using a calendar or a clock.

 

Geometry and Spatial Sense Standard

 

Patterns, Functions and Algebra Standard

2. Analyze and replicate arithmetic sequences with and without a calculator.

3. Use patterns to make predictions, identify relationships, and solve problems.

5. Write, solve and explain simple mathematical statements, such as 7 +  > 8 or  + 8 = 10.

6. Express mathematical relationships as equations and inequalities.

 

Data Analysis and Probability Standard K 123 4 5 6 7 8 9101112

3. Read, interpret and construct bar graphs with intervals greater than one.

7. Analyze and interpret information represented on a timeline.
