Unit 1 - Count & Graph
In this unit, students will...
Numbers to 120 Practice
- learn how to read, write and count to 100
- learn to count a large group of objects
- learn to use ten frames and understand that 10 ones equals a group of ten. Students will be able to take any number between 11 and 19, show the number in ten frames and say how many tens an ones. For example the number 12 has 1 ten and 2 ones. Learning to start at 10 and count on by ones. 10, 11, 12 instead of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc...
- learn to show a number two ways. For example the number 13 - students can show the number by simply writing it, drawing 13 circles or by drawing a ten frame.
- learn to graph - these will be pictographs with 2 categories. Students will need to use the graph to answer questions. These questions will be, how many students like _______? What pizza topping do students like the most? What pizza topping do students like the least? Students will need to know where to locate the title of the graph.
Numbers to 120 Practice
Unit 2 - Geometry
In this unit, students will need to identify 2D and 3D shapes. These shapes include: circle, square, rectangle, triangle, trapezoid, sphere, rectangular prism, cone, pyramid, cylinder.
RESOURCES
- Students will learn to read, write and count to 120
- Students will learn to name shapes and draw shapes according to number of angles and sides.
- Students will learn how to compose new 2D or 3D shapes and compare the similarities and differences. Examples: rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles and half circles (2D shapes). Also, cubes, rectangular prism, cones and cylinders (3D shapes)
- Students will learn to partition shapes (aka - fractions). Whole, halves, quarters and will be expected to use key vocabulary words such as half, quarter, quarter of.
- Graphing is taught again in this unit except this time the graph will have 3 categories instead of 2
RESOURCES
Unit 3 - Measurement & Time
In this unit, students will learn to:
Resources
- Measure objects using other objects. For example, using paperclips to measure a pencil, or unifix cubes. It is important students understand that the objects they're using to measure are all the same size. For instance, you can't measure a marker with large paper clips AND small paperclips - that is not an accurate measurement. Using only large or only small is the correct method. Students also need to understand that objects used to measure need to be lined up end to end and no spaces in between!
- Time to the hour and half hour. Students will learn to read time on an analog AND digital clock as well as draw the hands on the clock to show the correct time.
- Graph! Students will see three categories on a picture graph and will be asked questions like: How many students like spaghetti? Do the same number of students like strawberries and bananas? How many students have dogs AND cats at home?
