Standard 6.0 Knowledge of Number Relationships and Computation/Arithmetic
Students will describe, represent, or apply numbers or their relationships or will estimate or compute using mental strategies, paper/pencil or technology.
Topic
A. Knowledge of Number and Place Value
Indicator
- 1. Apply knowledge of whole numbers and place value
Objectives
- Use concrete materials to compose and decompose quantities up to 20
- Identify multiple representations for a number, such as: 12, 6 + 6, dozen
- Demonstrate instant recognition of quantities in patterned sets
- Use the numbers of 5 and 10 as anchors in relationship to other numbers
- Read, write, and represent whole numbers up to 100 and beyond using models, symbols, and words
- Express whole numbers up to 99 using expanded form
- Identify the place value of a digit in a whole number up to 99
- Compare and order whole numbers up to 99 using terms such as: greater than, less than, equal to
- Estimate quantities up to 50 and use the term "about"
- Count to 100
- Count forward and backward starting with numbers other than one
- Use ordinal numbers to indicate position: first through tenth
Indicator
- 2. Apply knowledge of fractions
Objectives
- Read, write, and represent fractions as parts of a single region using symbols and models with denominators of 2 or 4
- Read, write, and represent halves as parts of a set using pictures and models
Indicator
- 3. Apply knowledge of money
Objectives
- Determine the value of a given set of mixed currency up to $1
- Demonstrate monetary value using real or play coins
- Compare the value of 2 sets of same currency up to $1.00
Topic
C. Number Computation
Indicator
- 1. Analyze number relations and compute
Objectives
- Develop strategies for addition and subtraction basic facts such as: counting on, counting back, making ten, doubles, and doubles plus one
- Solve a given word problem based on addition or subtraction situation
- Identify the concept of inverse operation to addition and subtraction
Note: Highlighted assessment limits will be tested in the no calculator section of MSA. In the assessment limit, (0-10) or (-10 to 10) means all numbers in the problem or the answer will fall within the range of 0 to 10 (including endpoints) or -10 to 10 (including endpoints), respectively. All content standards are tested in MSA but not all objectives. Objectives that have an assessment limit are tested on MSA. Objectives without an assessment limit are not tested on MSA.
