Suggested Time Frame: 2 weeks
Teacher Tips:
Question 1 is an opportunity to build foundational number sense with numbers 0-20.
This question will allow you the opportunity to complete many of the beginning of year assessments.
Take the time to introduce place value and the relationship between ones and tens. **For this essential question, priority is on teen numbers for identifying tens and ones in a 2-digit number.
Introduce the comparing numbers within 0-20.
Please note the adjustments in the learning targets. * These skills should be taught to mastery within the suggested range.
Numeracy pretests in Seesaw: K-1 or Gr1-2
∎ Students will count, read and write any number up to 20 making use of structure to extend the counting sequence. (1.NBT.A.1,3)
∎ Students will identify tens and ones in teen numbers by looking for and making use of place value structure. (1.NBT.B.2)
∎ Students will compare 2-digit numbers (up to 20) making use of place value structure. (may start to introduce comparisons with the symbols >, =, and < for the first time but mastery not expected at this time). (1.NBT.3) (SMP2, SMP8)

Choose which strategy students need to practice. You may find that they need many, so start with one for a week or so, then move onto another. You are looking for efficient strategies, not mastery of all strategies. Students may find they prefer one strategy over another or change strategies for different problems. The goal is that they are flexibly using efficient strategies and are able to reason about numbers to fluently compute.

“Closure in a lesson does not mean to pack up and move on. Rather, it is a cognitive activity that helps students focus on what was learned and whether it made sense and had meaning.” How the Brain Learns Mathematics (2007) P. 104
There are many ways to wrap up and reflect the day's activities but this step is often overlooked or rushed. Purposely plan and allow time for students to have closure each day (even if it means setting a timer or daily alarm so you don't run out of time).

These are activities to give students mixed, spaced practice based on the big ideas for 1st grade math.
These resource sheets are intended to reinforce procedures and concepts. They should not be used as a source of direct instruction or whole-group practice. Please select pages carefully based on your students' needs.
You may have students work on these with a partner, independently with an answer key to self-check (tip: use sheet protectors), or as a journal response. It is not necessary to have students complete a page every day- the intent is to have opportunities to spiral concepts for mixed practice, not do "busy" work.
