1. Geometry
- Halves & Quarters of Shapes: Partition circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares and describe them using the words halves, fourths, and quarters
- Composing Shapes: Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, quarter-circles) to create composite shapes, and compose new shapes from the composite shape
- Building with 3-D Shapes: Compose three-dimensional shapes (cubes, right rectangular prisms, right circular cones, right circular cylinders) and create composite shapes; build new shapes from component shapes
- Angles in triangles (age 6+): Distinguish defining attributes of shapes (e.g. triangles are closed and three-sided) from non-defining attributes (e.g. colour, orientation, overall size)
2. Measurement and Data
- Sorting Data into Categories: Organise and represent data with up to three categories by counting objects in each category and sorting categories by quantity
- Sorting into categories (age 6+): Interpret categorical data by asking and answering questions about totals, how many in each category, and how many more or less one category has than another
- Halves and quarters (age 7+): Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, using $ and ¢ symbols appropriately
- Telling Time: Hours and Half Hours: Tell the time to the hour and half past the hour, and draw clock hands to show these times
- Measuring length (age 6+): Measure the length of an object using same-size length units laid end to end with no gaps or overlaps
- Measuring with different units: Measure the length of an object using two different length units and describe how the measurements relate to the size of the unit chosen
- Measuring length: Order three objects by length and compare the lengths of two objects indirectly using a third object
- Comparing lengths by measuring: Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another, expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit
3. Number and Operations in Base Ten
- Subtracting multiples of 10: Subtract multiples of 10 (10–90) from multiples of 10 using place value strategies
- The two digits of a two-digit number: Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones
- 10 More or 10 Less: Mentally find 10 more or 10 less than a given two-digit number without counting
- Adding numbers: Add up to four two-digit numbers using strategies based on place value and properties of operations
- Adding within 100: Add within 100 using strategies based on place value, including adding a two-digit and one-digit number, and a two-digit and a multiple of 10
- Comparing and ordering numbers: Compare and order two-digit numbers using the symbols >, =, and <, based on place value understanding
- Reading and writing numbers to 20: Read and write numerals from 0 to 20
- Reading and writing numbers to 100: Read and write numerals from 0 to 100
- Counting in 2s: Count in multiples of 2, 5, and 10 (skip counting)
4. Operations and Algebraic Thinking
- What the equals sign means: Understand the meaning of the equal sign as 'is the same as' and determine if equations are true or false
- Unknown in Addition & Subtraction: Determine the unknown whole number in an addition or subtraction equation relating three whole numbers
- Fluent adding and subtracting within 10: Fluently add and subtract within 10
- Addition and subtraction within 20: Add and subtract within 20 using strategies such as making ten, decomposing a number leading to ten, and using known facts
- Properties of Operations: Apply properties of operations (commutative, associative, distributive) as strategies to multiply and divide
- Addition and subtraction word problems: Solve addition and subtraction word problems within 10 using objects or drawings
