Jan 26, 2016 - Students' previous experience solving problems involving multiplicative comparisons, such as “Max has three times as many toy cars as Jack,” (4.OA.2) serves as the conceptual foundation for...
Oct 21, 2014 - Lessons in Topic A move students toward understanding familiar repeated addition from Grade 2 in the form of array models, which become a cornerstone of the module. Students use the language of...
Jan 26, 2016 - In this first module of Grade 1, students make significant progress towards fluency with addition and subtraction of numbers to 10 (1.OA.6). They are presented with opportunities intended to advance...
Jan 26, 2016 - In this first module of Grade 2, students make significant progress towards fluency with sums and differences within 20 (2.OA.2). Fluency, coupled with a fundamental grasp of place value, rests on...
Jan 26, 2016 - In Topic A, students examine situations carefully to determine if they are describing a proportional relationship. Their analysis is applied to relationships given in tables, graphs, and verbal...
Jan 26, 2016 - Study of factors links Topics A and B; Topic B extends the study to division. Students understand division as an unknown factor problem, and relate the meaning of unknown factors to either the...
Jan 26, 2016 - With the concept of ratio equivalence formally defined, students explore collections of equivalent ratios in real world contexts in Topic B. They build ratio tables and study their additive and...
Jan 26, 2016 - As students move into Topic B, they gain momentum with putting together, composing and decomposing, and counting on to determine the total. Students use both concrete and pictorial situations to...
Jan 26, 2016 - Students begin by learning to tell and write time to the nearest minute using analog and digital clocks in Topic A (3.MD.1). They understand time as a continuous measurement through exploration with...
Jan 26, 2016 - The first day of kindergarten is long anticipated by parents and young students. In Topic A, Lesson 1, students reason about matching pairs of objects. Some of the pairs are exactly the same and some...
Jan 26, 2016 - In Topic A, students begin by learning the precise definition of exponential notation where the exponent is restricted to being a positive integer. In Lessons 2 and 3, students discern the structure...
Jan 26, 2016 - In Topic A, students extend their previous understanding of multiplication and division to divide fractions by fractions. They construct division stories and solve word problems involving division...
Jan 26, 2016 - Now that students have practiced their kindergarten and Grade 1 skills, they are ready to become more fluent with addition problems, such as 8 + 7 and 5 + 9, where they must cross the ten. In Lesson 3...
Jan 26, 2016 - Students begin this module with Topic A, Constructions. Major constructions include an equilateral triangle, an angle bisector, and a perpendicular bisector. Students synthesize their knowledge of...
Jan 26, 2016 - In Topic A, students return to the number line to model the addition and subtraction of integers (7.NS.A.1). They use the number line and the Integer Game to demonstrate that an integer added to its...
Jan 26, 2016 - In Topic C, students use the array model and familiar skip-counting strategies to solidify their understanding of multiplication and practice related facts of 2 and 3. They become fluent enough with...
