Recall with automaticity addition and subtraction facts within 10.

Investigate, recognize, and describe part-part-whole relationships for numbers up to 20 in a variety of configurations (e.g., beaded racks, double ten frames).

Solve addition and subtraction problems within 20 using various strategies (e.g., inverse relationships: if 9 + 3 = 12 then 12 - 3 = 9; decomposition using known sums/differences: 9 + 7 can be thought of as 9 decomposed into 2 and 7, then use doubles, 7 + 7 = 14; 14 + 2 = 16 or decompose the 7 into 1 and 6; make a ten: 1 + 9 = 10; 10 + 6 = 16).

Use concrete materials to model an equation that represents the relationship of two expressions of equal value.

Write an equation that could be used to represent the solution to an oral, written, or picture problem.

The student will reason mathematically using nonstandard units to measure and compare objects by length, weight, and volume.

Use nonstandard units to measure the:

lengths of two objects (units laid end to end with no gaps or overlaps) and compare the measurements using the terms longer/shorter, taller/shorter, or the same as;

weights of two objects (using a balance scale or a pan scale) and compare the measurements using the terms lighter, heavier, or the same as; and

volumes of two containers and compare the measurements using the terms more, less, or the same as.

Measure the length, weight, or volume of the same object or container with two different units and describe how and why the measurements differ.

The student will describe, sort, draw, and name plane figures (circles, triangles, squares, and rectangles), and compose larger plane figures by combining simple plane figures.

Describe triangles, squares, and rectangles using the terms sides, vertices, and angles. Describe a circle using terms such as round and curved.

Sort plane figures based on their characteristics (e.g., number of sides, vertices, angles, curved).

Draw and name the plane figure (circle, square, rectangle, triangle) when given information about the number of sides, vertices, and angles.

Identify, name, and describe representations of circles, squares, rectangles, and triangles, regardless of orientation, in different environments and explain reasoning.

Recognize and name the angles found in rectangles and squares as right angles.

Compose larger plane figures by combining two or three simple plane figures (triangles, squares, and/or rectangles).

The student will demonstrate an understanding of the concept of passage of time (to the nearest hour and half-hour) and the calendar.

Identify different tools to measure time including clocks (analog and digital) and calendar.

Describe the units of time represented on a clock as minutes and hours.

Tell time to the hour and half-hour, using analog and digital clocks.

Describe the location of the hour hand relative to time to the hour and half-hour on an analog clock.

Describe the location of the minute hand relative to time to the hour and half-hour on an analog clock.

Match the time shown on a digital clock to an analog clock to the hour and half-hour.

Identify specific days/dates on a calendar (e.g., What date is Saturday? How many Fridays are in October?).

Use ordinal numbers first through tenth to describe the relative position of specific days/dates (e.g., What is the first Monday in October? What day of the week is May 6th?).

Determine the day/date before and after a given day/date (e.g., Today is the 8 th , so yesterday was the ?), and a date that is a specific number of days/weeks in the past or future (e.g., Tim’s birthday is in 10 days, what will be the date of his birthday?).

The student will utilize flexible counting strategies to determine and describe quantities up to 120.

Count forward orally by ones from 0 to 120 starting at any number between 0 and 120.

Count backward orally by ones when given any number between 1 and 30.

Represent forward counting patterns when counting by groups of 5 and groups of 10 up to 120 using a variety of tools (e.g., objects, coins, 120 chart).

Represent forward counting patterns when counting by groups of 2 up to at least 30 using a variety of tools (e.g., beaded number strings, number paths [a prelude to number lines], 120 chart).

Group a collection of up to 120 objects into tens and ones, and count to determine the total (e.g., 5 groups of ten and 6 ones is equal to 56 total objects).

Identify a penny, nickel, and dime by their attributes and describe the number of pennies equivalent to a nickel and a dime.

Create a concrete or pictorial representation of a number using tens and ones and write the corresponding numeral up to 120 (e.g., 47 can be represented as 47 ones or it can be grouped into 4 tens with 7 ones left over).

Describe the number of groups of tens and ones when given a two-digit number and justify reasoning.

Compare two numbers between 0 and 120 represented pictorially or with concrete objects using the terms greater than, less than, or equal to.
