Grade 1 Math

In Grade 1, instructional time should focus on four critical areas:

(1) developing understanding of addition, subtraction, and strategies for addition and subtraction within 20;

(2) developing understanding of whole number relationships and place value, including grouping in tens and ones;

(3) developing understanding of linear measurement and measuring lengths as iterating length units; and

(4) reasoning about attributes of, and composing and decomposing geometric shapes.

The Fluency Expectation in Grade 1 is that students will be able to fluently add & subtract within 10, and add & subtract within 20.
