Kindergarten

Mathematics

Number Sense

1.0 Students understand the relationship between numbers and quantities (i.e., that a set of objects has the same number of objects in different situations regardless of its position or arrangement).

2.0 Students understand and describe simple additions and subtractions.

3.0 Students use estimation strategies in computation and problem solving that involve numbers that use the ones and tens places.

Algebra and Functions

1.0 Students sort and classify objects.

Measurement and Geometry

1.0 Students understand the concept of time and units to measure it; they understand that objects have properties, such as length, weight, and capacity, and that comparisons may be made by referring to those properties.

2.0 Students identify common objects in their environment and describe the geometric features.

Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability

1.0 Students collect information about objects and events in their environment.

Mathematical Reasoning

1.0 Students make decisions about how to set up a problem.

2.0 Students solve problems in reasonable ways and justify their reasoning.

First Grade

Mathematics

Number Sense

1.0 Students understand and use numbers up to 100.

2.0 Students demonstrate the meaning of addition and subtraction and use these operations to solve problems.

3.0 Students use estimation strategies in computation and problem solving that involve numbers that use the ones, tens, and hundreds places.

Algebra and Functions

1.0 Students use number sentences with operational symbols and expressions to solve problems.

Measurement and Geometry

1.0 Students use direct comparison and nonstandard units to describe the measurements of objects.

2.0 Students identify common geometric figures, classify them by common attributes, and describe their relative position or their location in space.

Statistics, Data Analysis, and Probability

1.0 Students organize, represent, and compare data by category on simple graphs and charts.

2.0 Students sort objects and create and describe patterns by numbers, shapes, sizes, rhythms, or colors.

Mathematical Reasoning

1.0 Students make decisions about how to set up a problem.

2.0 Students solve problems and justify their reasoning.

3.0 Students note connections between one problem and another.
