- Skip counts by 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s up to 100 and up to 1000.
- Understands the relationship between skip counting and grouping.
- Finds factors of numbers using factor pairs.
- Demonstrates an understanding of the characteristics of odd and even numbers and how they behave when combined.
- Understands common fractions (1/2, 1/3, and 1/4) as parts of wholes and parts of groups.
- Knows common fraction equivalents, especially relationships among halves, thirds, and sixths.
- Understands that the relationships that occur between 0 and 1 also occur between any consecutive whole numbers.
- When solving problems, selects and uses appropriate operations to solve addition, subtraction, mulitplication, and division problems.
- Understands the effect of an operation on whole numbers.
- Maintains automaticity with addition and subtraction facts to 20.
- Demonstrates automaticity with multiplication facts (0-5) and the realted division facts and fluency with fats 6-10.
- Uses efficient, accurate, and flexible mental and written strategies based on numerical reasoning to find: sums and differences of multi-digit numbers (up to 3-digit number); products of 1-and 2-digit numbers and 1-digit numbers by 10 and multiples of 10; quotients (dividing whole numbers up to 2-digits by 1-digit divisors).
- Develops, records, explains, and compares strategies for estimating and computing problems in more than one way.
Geometry:
- Invesitages and predicts the results of putting together and taking apart 2-D shapes.

- Identifies and describes the results of sliding, flipping and turning 2-D shapes.
- Identifies, describes, and draws intersecting, parallel and perpendicular shapes.

- Estimates, measures, and compares lenght (to the nearest inch, half inch, centimeter, quarter inch and half centimeter).
- Finds the area of shapes by identifying smaller units of area, such as square units and half units.
- Measures the perimeter of geometric figures.
Data & Probability:
- Collects and organizes data using observations, surveys, and experiments.
- Represents data using tables, bar graphs, line graphs, and line plots.
- Chooses and constructs representations that are appropriate for a data set.
- Describes the shape of the data and analyzes it for patterns.
- Describes events with terms such as likely, unlikely, more likely, and less likely.
- Predicts the probability of outcomes of simple experiments, tests the predictions and records results.
Algebra:
- Recognizes, describes, and extends geometric and numeric patterns.
- Identifies the core/unit of repeating and growing patterns.
- Explains and applies a rule for a pattern.
- Represents the idea of a variable as an unknown quantity using a letter or a symbol.

Problem Solving:
- Selects, develops, adapts and applies strategies to solve a wide variety of problems.
- Transfers and generalizes previous experience to new problem solving situations.
- Builds new mathematical knowledge through problem solving.
- Demonstrates persistence in problem solving.
- Verifies results.
