1st Grade Overview

Course Description:The First Grade Math Curriculum builds upon number skills up to 50. The students will

be taught number facts and strategies to 12. These skills will be applied to everyday activitiesand problem solving. Place value to 100 and money are introduced at this level. Conceptsrelated to graphing, geometry and time are also built upon from Kindergarten.

Course Essential Questions:Why is knowing how to perform addition operation important?Is the sum of two numbers always larger than either of its addends?Does the value of a number change when it is moved to another position in a number?When is a estimate the best answer?When is it easier to count by twos rather than ones?When is it easier to count by fives rather than twos or ones?Does adding zero to a number change the sum?If there were no such thing as money how would people pay for their goods and services?

1st Grade Local Math StandardsNumbering Key: Local.Grade level.Mathematics strand*.standard #e.g. L.1.N.5 (L = local; 1 = 1st Grade; N = Number Sense and Operations; 5 = 5th standard)

L.1.N.1 Representationand Notation

For whole numbers 0 to 50: Read (symbol and word (zero - ten)),write, and count with understanding (one-to-one correspondence)from one or a number other than one by 1's and recognize “howmany” in sets of objects regardless of arrangement (conservation);represent 0 to 20 w/drawn pictures or manipulatives; explorenumbers to 100.

L.1.N.2 Place Value Use regrouping and place value in the base ten system (10 ones =1 ten, 10 tens = 1 hundred) to count and represent numbers 0 to100.

L.1.N.3 Number Order Compare and order whole numbers (0 – 50) including the use ofwords that imply order (i.e., higher, lower, greater, less, first, last,before, after, and between); name the number before and thenumber after a given number, and name the number(s) betweentwo given numbers up to 50 (with or without the use of a numberline or a hundreds chart); use verbal ordinal numbers (1st to 20th).

L.1.N.4 Addition andSubtraction

Add and subtract one- and two-digit whole numbers withoutregrouping using a variety of strategies and recognize therelationship between addition and subtraction; use addition andsubtraction in simple real life applications and word problems.

L.1.A.1 Patterns andRepresentations

Recognize, describe, extend, and create a wide variety of patterns(pictorial, numeric (0 to 100), geometric, etc.); sort, classify andorder objects using likenesses and differences in attributes (color,shape, size, etc.) and explain reasoning.

L.1.G.1 Shapes andFigures

Explore, name, and compare two-dimensional (circle, square,rectangle, triangle, rhombus (diamond), oval) and three-dimensional (sphere, cube, prism, cylinder, pyramid, cone)shapes, and recognize them in the real world.

L.1.G.2 Transformationsand Symmetry

L.1.PS.1 Organization Analyze situations (identify the problem, identify neededinformation, and generate possible strategies) and organize workto solve problems (e.g. use Auburn Problem Solving Process).

L.1.PS.2 Strategies Solve problems using variety of strategies such as counting, useof manipulatives (i.e., tiles or blocks), drawing pictures, orresponding to teacher questioning.

L.1.PS.3 Reflection Examine answer to see if it makes sense.L.1.R.1 State process (e.g. added number in each group to find total) or

reason for answer.L.1.Rep.1 Represent mathematical ideas in a variety of ways (verbally, in

writing, pictorially, numerically, or with physical objects); switchamong different representations.

_______; 3 + 2 = ______)What would be the easiest way for you to solve this problem? 8 + 2 = ______What are some words you can use to tell a math story about your family? Tell what

happened at the beginning, middle, and end.

Strategies for Unit 4:

Holiday Flash Card Game - Using a set of fact cards, choose a number of them to plaster withseveral different holiday stickers. (Leave the facts visible) As you play “Around theWorld” when you get to a card that has stickers, they don’t say the actual answer theydon’t say ”Boo, Boo, Boo, or Gobble, Gobble, Gobble or Ho, Ho, Ho, depending on thenearest holiday. If they do say the number, it is not what you are looking for. Otherphrases can be Kiss, Kiss, Kiss or Shamrock or Peep! Peep! Peep!. The game can also beplayed using a designated number.

Fact Game – Give each child a fact of 10, 11 or 12. At the signal, the children move and placetheir fact in the correct container. Ex., pumpkin, turkey basket, Valentine boxes. Teachergoes to container and reads the entries. Children give a “thumbs up” if it is correct. Ifnot, review the fact. One child tallies the correct answers.

AECSD Grade_1_Math_Curriculum.doc 16

Fact Game – Draw on the board or attach 2 strings to make clothesline. Each child is given apaper shirt with a fact of 8 or 9 and a clothespin. Children take their shirt and hand themon either the “8 line” or “9 line.”

Commutative Property Game – Pass out facts on pieces of paper. At the signal students find their“fact partner” Ex. 4+5=9 find 5+4=9. When they find their partner, they sit in a circle.Go around the circle and have the partner read the commutative facts.

Three Sided Math – Make flash cards from paper triangles. In each corner, write one of the threenumber of an addition fact. Cover the greatest number and have your child tell anaddition sentence. Cover one of the lesser numbers, and ask for a subtraction sentence.

Smart Cookie – Using a deck of cards or number cards, give two children cards, sight unseen, toplace on their foreheads. Child A can see what the other child has. They whole classknows what numbers the two children have. The teacher, or another student says “Thesum is 7 or 9, etc. The first child to say their number in the “smart cookie”

Swat It- Spread fact cards on a table, or attach them, to the board. Using two or three cleanflyswatters, have the children swat at the card that goes with a sum or a difference. Thechild who collects the most cards wins. This can also be played with sums or differenceslaid out on the table, or written on the board. If using the board tally the scores and havethe child erase as they correctly swat.

Ways to Make a Number Game- Put 10, 9 etc., objects on a folder. Say “How many bears are onthe wall? How many bears are below the wall?” Say and write the number sentence asyou take one object away each time. 10+0=10, 9+1=10.

Ways to Make a Number Game – Put 10, 9, etc home make double sided counter in a jar to spillout on the table. Cover poker chips or the yellow and red chips with stickers or coloredpaper. Pink and green chips can be called pigs or frogs. As the chips are spilled have thechildren say and write the corresponding number sentence. (Always say one of the colorsfirst.) This can be adopted to Clifford’s and Tweeties (red and yellow), Caspers andKermits (white and green.) etc.

Firecracker – Cover a tube-shaped container (pringles can, etc.) with red paper. Decorate withstars, etc., If you want to you can twist red, orange and yellow pipe cleaners into a little“flame” to tap through a hole in the top of the can. Put small fact cards in the can, alongwith 2 or 3 same-sized cards that say “Boom!” The children take turns pulling out cards.As they pick out cards they answer the fact with a number sentence and collect the cards.If they pull out a “Boom!” they lose all of their cards and start all over.

12 Grid – Use two sided red and yellow counters to make addition sentences up to 12. The Gridis located in the First Grade Folder under unit 4 12board.

Skip Counting – Use nickel and dime money stamps to count by fives and tens. “Swim” yourway to 100 by extending your arms one at a time as you count by fives. Wiggle your fivefingers as you “swim”. Jump in place as you count by 10”s. (10 toes touching the groundwith each jump).

Ordinal Reinforcement- reading sheets often have words in a box or word bank. Ask thechildren to identify the ordinal position of the word.

Ordinal game – Make or use masks on a stick. Have the children line up with masks and ask theother ordinal position.

Ordinal Game – Give each child a small bag with the same 10 objects. Have them order theobjects. Put the pencil 1st, the button, 2nd the erases 3rd., etc.,

Pattern Activities - Use stringing beads to make patterns. Use patterns to “frame” picturesthey’ve drawn. E.g. Halloween picture with pattern around the frame spider, ghost, bat.
