    Counting and Cardinality, CC

    • Recite numbers in order to 30 with increasing accuracy.
    • Recognize and know the name of some written numbers 1-10.
    • Count up to 15 objects, using one-to-one correspondence.
    • Understand, when counting, that the number name of the last object counted represents the total number of objects in the group.

    Operations and Algebraic Thinking, OA

    • Expand their understanding of numbers and quantities in their everyday environment.
    • Understand that adding one or taking away one changes the number in a small group of objects by exactly one.
    • Understand that putting two groups of objects together will make a bigger group and that a group of objects can be taken apart into smaller groups.
    • Expand their understanding of sorting and classifying objects in their everyday environment.
    • Sort and classify objects by one or more attributes, into two or more groups, with increasing accuracy.

    Measurement and Data, MD

    • Expand their understanding of comparing, ordering, and measuring.
    • Compare by counting or matching two groups of up to five objects and communicate “more,” “same as,” or “fewer.”
    • Compare two objects by length, weight, or capacity directly or indirectly.
    • Order four or more objects by size.
    • Measure length using multiple duplicates of the same size concrete units laid end to end.

    Geometry, G

    • Identify and use a variety of shapes in their everyday environment.
    • Identify, describe, and construct a variety of different shapes, including variations of a circle, triangle, rectangle, square, and other shapes.
    • Combine different shapes to create a picture or design.
    • Identify positions of objects and people in space, including in/on/under/up/down/inside/outside/beside/between, and in front/behind.

    2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively
    3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
    4. Model with mathematics.
    5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
    6. Attend to precision
    7. Look for and make use of structure.
    8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
