Core Ideas
  • Core Idea 1: Number Properties
    • Understand numbers, ways of representing numbers, relationships among numbers, and number systems.
    • Develop a sense of whole numbers and represent and use them in flexible ways, including relating, composing, and decomposing numbers.
    • Develop understanding of the relative magnitude of whole numbers and the concepts of sequences, quantity, and the relative positions of numbers.
    • Understand conservation of quantity and number.
    • Use multiple models to illustrate understandings of the base-ten number system and place value concepts.
    • Understand that fractions are equal partitions.
  • Core Idea 2: Number Operations
    • Understand the meanings of operations and how they relate to each other, make reasonable estimates, and compute fluently.
    • Develop an understanding of the different meanings of addition and subtraction of whole numbers and the relationship between the two operations.
    • Develop fluency in adding and subtracting whole numbers within 20.
    • Develop and use strategies to estimate and calculate.
    • Begin to develop an understanding of the concepts of multiplication and division through situations such as equal groupings of objects and equal sharing.
  • Core Idea 3: Patterns, Functions, and Algebra
    • Understand patterns and use mathematical models to represent and understand qualitative and quantitative relationships.
    • Describe and extend patterns of sound, shape, or number and translate from one representation to another.
    • Describe and extend growing as well as repeating patterns.
    • Use the general principles and properties of operations, such as commutativity, with specific numbers.
    • Model problem situations using objects, pictures, and symbols
    • Describe change qualitatively, such as students growing taller or the weather turning colder.
  • Core Idea 4: Geometry and Measurement
    • Recognize and use characteristics, properties, and relationships of two- and three-dimensional geometric shapes and apply appropriate techniques to determine measurements.
    • Begin to describe and classify two- and three-dimensional shapes according to common attributes and/or parts of their shapes.
    • Compare the length, weight, and volume of objects by using direct comparison or non-standard units.
    • Develop an understanding of the standard units of measuring time.
  • Core Idea 5: Data Analysis
    • Students collect, organize, display, and interpret data about themselves and their surroundings.
    • Collect information from group-generated survey question.
    • Represent data using pictures, bar graphs, tally charts, Venn diagrams, and pictographs.
    • Describe parts of the data and the set of data as a whole to determine what the data shows.
