Math
Math Goals:
- Make a model to represent a given whole number 0 through 20.
- Identify orally a whole number represented by a model with a word name and symbol 0 through 20. (Say 3 and write number 3 when presented with three objects.)
- Count aloud, forward to 20or backward from 10, in consecutive order (0 through 20).
- Identify whole numbers through 20 in or out of order.
- Write whole numbers through 20 in or out of order.
- Construct equivalent forms of whole numbers, using manipulatives, through 10 (e.g., ??+?? =???+?).
- Compare two whole numbers through 20
- Recognize the ordinal numbers through fifth (e.g., first, second, third).
- Order three or more whole numbers through 20 (least to greatest or greatest to least).
- Identify penny, nickel, dime, quarter, and dollar by using manipulatives or pictures.
- Model addition through sums of 10 using manipulatives
- Model subtraction with minuends of 10 using manipulatives.
- Select the operation to solve word problems using numbers 0 through 9.
- Solve word problems presented orally using addition or subtraction with numbers through 9
- Identify the symbols: +, -, =.
- Use grade-level appropriate mathematical terminology
- Solve problems using a variety of mental computations and reasonable estimations.
- Formulate questions to collect data in contextual situations.
- Interpret a pictograph
- Answer questions about a pictograph.
- Formulate questions based on data displayed in graphs, charts, and tables.
- Solve problems based on simple graphs, charts, and tables.
- Make arrangements that represent the number of combinations that can be formed by pairing items taken from 2 sets, using manipulatives (e.g., How many outfits can one make with 2 different color shirts and 2 different pairs of pants?).
- Color pictures with the least number of colors so that no common edges share the same color (increased complexity throughout grade levels).
- Communicate orally a grade-level appropriate pattern.
- Extend simple repetitive patterns using manipulatives.
- Creategrade-level appropriate patterns.
- Identify 2-dimensional shapes by attribute (size, shape, number of sides).
- Identify concepts and terms of position and size in contextual situations: Inside/outside; Above/below/between; Smaller/larger; and Longer/shorter.
- Identify shapes in different environments (e.g., nature, buildings, classroom).
- Verbally compare objects according to observable and measurable attributes
- Communicate orally how different attributes of an object can be measured
- Order objects according to observable and measurable attributes
- Sort objects according to observable attributes
- Provide rationale for classifying objects according to observable attributes (color, size, shape, weight, etc.).
