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.

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

10. Explain and use relationships between operations, such as:

    a. relate addition and subtraction as inverse operations;

11. Model and use the commutative and associative properties for addition and multiplication.

12. Add and subtract whole numbers with and without regrouping.

 

Measurement Standard K 123 4 5 6 7 8 9101112

1. Identify and select appropriate units for measuring:

    a. length – miles, kilometers and other units of measure as appropriate;

    b. volume (capacity) – gallons;

    c. weight – ounces, pounds, grams, or kilograms;

    d. temperature – degrees (Fahrenheit or Celsius).

2. Establish personal or common referents to include additional units; e.g., a gallon container of milk; a postage stamp is about a square inch.

4. Read thermometers in both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales.

5. Estimate and measure length, weight and volume (capacity), using metric and U.S. customary units, accurate to the nearest ½ or ¼ unit as appropriate.

6. Use appropriate measurement tools and techniques to construct a figure or approximate an amount of specified length, weight or volume (capacity); e.g., construct a rectangle with length 2 ½ inches and width 3 inches, fill a measuring cup to the 3/4 cup mark.

 

Geometry and Spatial Sense Standard

 

Patterns, Functions and Algebra Standard

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.
