Big Ideas: Math

Learning Expectations for Grade 1 Math:


NUMBER SENSE AND NUMERATION


  • Read, represent, compare, and order whole numbers to 50, and use concrete materials to investigate fractions and money amounts
  • Demonstrate an understanding of magnitude by counting forward to 100 and backwards from 20;
  • Solve problems involving the addition and subtraction of single-digit whole numbers, using a variety of strategies

 

MEASUREMENT


  • Estimate, measure, and describe length, area, mass, capacity, time, and temperature, using non-standard units of the same size
  • Compare, describe, and order objects, using attributes measured in non-standard units
     

GEOMETRY AND SPATIAL SENSE


  • Identify common two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional figures and sort and classify them by their attributes
  • Compose and decompose common two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional figures
  • Describe the relative locations of objects using positional language
     

PATTERNING AND ALGEBRA


  • Identify, describe, extend, and create repeating patterns
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the concept of equality, using concrete materials and addition and subtraction to 10

 

DATA MANAGEMENT AND PROBABILITY


  • Collect and organize categorical primary data and display the data using concrete graphs and pictographs, without regard to the order of labels on the horizontal axis
  • Read and describe primary data presented in concrete graphs and pictographs
  • Describe the likelihood that everyday events will happen
