Taught Early October
Approx. 18 Days
Embedded Files
In this unit, students explore mathematical tools and notice numbers and quantities around them, while teachers gather information about students’ counting skills and understanding of number concepts.
Taught by Early November
Approx. 23 Days
Students answer “how many” questions, count out, and compare groups within 10. Students write a number to represent how many.
In this unit, students continue to develop counting concepts and skills, including comparing, while learning to write numbers.
Taught by Mid- December
Approx. 19 Days
Students relate counting to addition and solve addition and subtraction story problems within 10.
In this unit, students develop their understanding of addition and subtraction as they represent and solve story problems.
Taught by beginning of February
Approx. 16 Days
In this unit, students explore different ways to compose and decompose numbers within 10 and to represent the compositions and decompositions. Students describe and compare different ways to decompose numbers with math tools, expressions, and equations in Notice and Wonder and Which One Doesn’t Belong routines throughout the unit. Students extend the verbal count sequence to 70 and continue to practice counting on from a given number in the Choral Count routine.
Taught by beginning of March
Approx. 14 Days
Students answer “how many” questions and count out groups within 20. They understand that numbers 11 to 19 are composed of ten ones and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones. They write numbers within 20.
In this unit, students count and represent collections of objects and images within 20. They apply previously developed counting concepts—such as one-to-one correspondence, keeping track of what has been counted, and conservation of numbers—to larger numbers.
Taught by beginning of April
Approx. 16 Days
Students identify, describe, analyze, compare, and compose two-dimensional shapes.
This unit introduces students to the foundational concepts of geometry, with a focus on familiar flat (two-dimensional) shapes.
Taught by beginning of May
Approx. 17 Days
Students identify, describe, analyze, compare, and compose two- and three- dimensional shapes. Counting, addition, and subtraction are revisited in the geometric contexts.
In this unit, students explore solid shapes while reinforcing their knowledge of counting, number writing and comparison, and flat shapes. They compose figures with pattern blocks and continue to count up to 20 objects, write and compare numbers, and solve story problems.
Taught by June
Approx. 22 Days
Students consolidate and solidify their understanding of various concepts and skills on major work of the grade. They also continue to work toward fluency goals of the grade.
In this unit, students revisit major work and fluency goals of the grade, applying their learning from the year.
Section A focuses on concepts of counting and comparing. Section B highlights the presence of math in students’ school community. Section C enables students to practice composing and decomposing numbers within 5, as well as adding and subtracting within 5. Section D focuses on composing and decomposing 10.
These units are intentionally out of order per the recommendation of the leadership team.
