Learning Target #1
Represent numbers,
monetary values, and
fractions (i.e., halves
and fourths) to show
equivalency (e.g.,
5+5=8+2, 10 dimes is
worth $1.00, 4 fourths
is the same as 1 whole)
and to compare them.

Suggest Descriptors
B.a Concept
B.a.5 Represent halves and
fourths using objects and
pictures to explain the
meaning of fractions as parts
of a whole.

Mathematical Processes
A.1 Use reasoning and logic
to: Perceive patterns, Identify
relationships, formulate
questions, pose problems,
make conjectures, justify
strategies and test
reasonableness of results.

Learning Target # 6
Describe measurable
attributes and identify,
estimate, and use nonstandard
and standard
units to measure
attributes of objects,
time, and temperature.

Suggest Descriptors
D.a Measurable attributes
D.a.1 Use everyday language to
describe measurable attributes of
objects (e.g., height, length, distance
around, weight, mass, capacity),
time, and temperature.
D.a.2 Identify appropriate nonstandard
units (e.g., paper clips,
cubes ) and standard units (e.g.,
inches, minutes, hours, days,
months, degrees Fahrenheit) to
quantify measurable attributes.
D.b Direct measurement
D.b.3 Read and interpret measuring
instruments to quantify measurable
attributes of objects using nonstandard
units and standard units to
the nearest whole unit (e.g., nearest
inch or nearest number of paper
clips).
D.b.6 Tell time to the nearest hour
or half-hour using analog clocks and
tell time using digital clocks.
D.c Indirect measurements
D.c.7 Estimate length, weight, and
mass of objects using common
referents for non-standard and
standard units.

Mathematical Processes

Perceive patterns, Identify
relationships, formulate questions ,
pose problems, make conjectures,
