Math Benchmarks
3rd Trimester

 

 

Number Sense

   -understand relationship between numbers and quantities

   -compare two or more groups of objects and can id which group has the same, more, or less than other groups

   -read, write, and count numbers and objects up to 30 and put them in order

   -know that larger numbers describe groups with more objects and smaller numbers describe groups with fewer objects in them

    -understnad and describe simple additions and subtractions

   -use real objects to figure out the answers to addition and subtraction

   -estimate strategies in computation and problem solving that involve numbers that use the ones and tens place

   -recognize when to estimate

 

Algebra and Functions

   -sort and classify objects

   -put objects in groups by deciding the ways they are alike or different

   

Measurement and Geometry

   -understand the concept of time and units of time and how to measure it (length, weight, capacity)

   -compare the length, weight and how much objects will hold by comparing them

   -know about time and meaning of time words (morning, afternoon, evening, today, yesterday, tomorrow, week, year, clock, and calendar)

   -know the names of the days of the week

   -tell time to the nearest hour and average times of day when things occur

   -ID common objects in environment and describe the geometric features (shapes)

   -name and describe objects such as circles, triangles, square, rectangle, cube, sphere, and cone

   -name and describe flat and solid objects by things they have in common

 

Mathematical Reasoning

   -make decisions about how to set up a problem

   -figure out how to solve math problems and what they need to solve them (objects and pencil and paper)

   -draw my answers or use objects to solve them

   -solve problems in reasonable ways and justify their reasoning

   -explain answers to others using drawings or objects

   -solve problems and check my answers to make sure they are correct
