Introduction
For more than a decade, research studies of mathematics education in high-performing
countries have concluded that mathematics education in the United States must
become substantially more focused and coherent in order to improve mathematics
achievement in this country. To deliver on this promise, the mathematics standards
were designed to address the problem of a curriculum that is “a mile wide and an inch
deep.”

The new standards build on the best of high-quality math standards from states across
the country. They also draw on the most important international models for
mathematical practice, as well as research and input from numerous sources, including
state departments of education, scholars, assessment developers, professional
organizations, educators, parents and students, and members of the public.

The math standards provide clarity and specificity rather than broad general statements.
They follow a design that not only stresses conceptual understanding of key ideas but
also the organizing principles such as place value and the laws of arithmetic to structure
those ideas.

In addition, the sequence of topics and performances outlined in the body of math
standards respects what is known about how students learn, namely, that developing
sequenced obstacles and challenges for students, absent from the insights about
meaning that derive from careful study, is unwise. Therefore, the development of the
standards began with research-based learning progressions detailing what is known
today about how students’ mathematical knowledge, skill, and understanding develop
over time. The knowledge and skills students need to be prepared for mathematics in
college, career, and life are woven throughout the mathematics standards.

These standards define what students should understand and be able to do in their
study of mathematics. Teachers are required to assess understanding by asking the
student to justify, in a way that is appropriate to the student’s mathematical maturity,
why a particular mathematical statement is true or where a mathematical rule comes
from. Mathematical understanding and procedural skill are equally important, and both
are assessed by using mathematical tasks of sufficient richness.

The assessments contained in this curriculum document reflect the level of rigor
represented in the PARCC assessment and the NJ state Model Curriculum for Math.
They serve as guideposts for teachers in determining the level of preparedness
students need to reach. The Resource section will continue to evolve as teachers plan
their lessons and gather more resources to teach the units.

Learning Objective #2
Introduce the concept of weight, heavier, lighter-(K.MD.1)
Learning Objective # 3
Compare objects based on a shared attribute- (K.MD.2)
Learning Objective #4

Administration: Small group

Materials: One marker, a heavy binder, 5 glue sticks, a balance scale (if you have one), 5 cubes, 5
unsharpened pencils, 5 folders, 5 paper clips, and 5 books (be sure the groups of objects have different
weights so the students can make a clear comparison)

Directions:

1. Randomly place the cubes, pencils, folders, paper clips, and books in the middle of the
floor.
2. Hold up one of the folders and a book. Ask students, “Can you describe how these are
different?”
3. Listen to student responses. If necessary try to get them to discuss measurable differences
in the objects. For example, the textbook is heavier than the composition book.
4. Next, hold up one glue stick and one pencil. Ask students, “Can you describe how these
are different?”
5. Listen to student responses. They should say that the pencil is longer or heavier than the
glue stick, or that the glue stick is shorter than the pencil.
6. Repeat this with various objects of different lengths and weights before moving to step 7.
7. Tell students, “We are going to weigh some objects today. I want to know which
weighs more, this marker (hold up the marker) or this binder (hold up the heavy
binder)?”
8. Students should respond, “The binder.”
9. Say, “Okay, now I am going to give each of you a glue stick (give each student a glue
stick). Go to the objects in the middle of the floor and find something that weighs
more than your glue stick. Once you have picked an object that weighs more than
your glue stick, bring it to me.”
10. Have students use a balance scale to compare the weights of each group of objects, or
have them use their hands to feel the weight if there is no balance.
11. Once you check their selection, have them return the object to the floor.
12. Next, instruct students, “Go to the objects in the middle of the floor and find
something that weighs less than your glue stick. Once you have picked an object that
weighs less than your glue stick, bring it to me.”
13. Once you check their selection, have them return the object to the floor.

or decomposing a number leading to a 10. (1.OA.6)

Task 4: Addition and Subtraction Across 10

Administration: Small group (2-4 students)

Materials: Ten-frame, counters, number line, student white board and markers, paper and
pencils

Directions:

1. Explain to the students that you are going to read them a story and ask them to try to
answer a question by just thinking about the problem.
2. Read Question 1 slowly. Repeat if necessary. Allow time for the students to think about
the problem.
3. If any students are stuck, ask them if they would like to use one of the tools. If they are
dependent on looking at their peers, encourage them to try their own idea.
4. Ask each student to share his or her answer with the group. After all students have shared
their answers, ask each student to explain how they got the answer. If there is a
disagreement, allow the students to discuss their solutions until they agree on the answer.
5. If a student does not make a 10 (i.e., 8 + 6 = 8 + 2 + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14), say, “Did anyone
consider making a 10? How could making a 10 help you solve this problem?”
Encourage the students to use the ten-frame to model a “make 10” strategy.
6. Repeat the process with Questions 2 and 3. For Question 2, instead of a “make 10”
strategy, students should be encouraged to use a “decompose to 10” strategy, i.e., 13 – 4
= 13 – 3 – 1 = 10 – 1 = 9.

Task 8: Popcorn Revisited

# STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVES CCSS

8 Read and write numerals to 120 starting at any number and represent a 1.NBT.1
number of objects with a written numeral.

Administration: Small group

Materials: A small ball

Directions:

1. Arrange the group in a circle.


2. Tell the students, “I am going to write a number on the board.”
3. Write the number 103 on the board. Say, “Raise your hand if you can tell me what number
this is.” Pass the ball to a student with his or her hand up, and ask him or her to say the number.
4. Repeat step 3 with different numbers between 0 and 120 until all of the students have had the
opportunity to read at least three numbers.
5. Say, “Now we are going to play a game called Popcorn. I will choose a number and call on
one of you to come up and write the number on the board. Then I will give you the ball, and
you will be the counter. [Student name], please come up to the board and write the number
107.”
6. After the student writes the number, give him or her the ball and have him or her return to his or
her place in the circle. Say, “[Student name], count forward beginning at 107. When I say,
“popcorn,” stop counting and pass the ball to the person on your left.”
7. Have the student count, “107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112,” continuing to 120. At 120, say,
“popcorn!” Make sure the student stops counting when you say, “popcorn.”
8. Say, “Pass the ball to the person on your left.” Clarify the procedure for any
students who are confused.

9. Address the student who now has the ball. Say, “[student name], I am going to say a
different number, and I would like you to write that number on the board.” Choose
a new number less than 120, and have the student count at least to 120. Then say,
“popcorn!” Direct the student to pass the ball to the person on his or her left.

10. Continue to play the game until every student has had at least two opportunities to count
from a given number to 120.

Note: The game may be played individually with any student who has difficulty with the group game
format.

Task 9: Add It, Subtract It, Solve It

# STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVES CCSS


6 Add and subtract within 20 (fluently within 10). Use strategies 1.OA.6
such as: counting on; making ten (e.g., 8 + 6 = 8 + 2 + 4 = 10 + 4 =
14); decomposing a number leading to a ten (e.g., 13 - 4 = 13 - 3 - 1
= 10 - 1 = 9); relationship between addition and subtraction (e.g.,
knowing that 8 + 4 = 12, one knows 12 - 8 = 4); and creating
equivalent sums (e.g., adding 6 + 7 by creating the known
equivalents 6 + 6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13).

Administration: Whole class and small group

Note: The tasks may be administered in more than one session.

Materials: Copies of “Add It – Subtract It” and “Solve It” answer sheet, ten-frame, counters,
number line.

Directions:

1. Part 1 - “Add It – Subtract It” (whole class)


a) Provide each student with an “Add It – Subtract It” sheet.
b) Say to the class, “On your answer sheet write your name, then complete as many
number sentences you can. I will let you know when to stop.”
c) Check on the students as they complete the task.

2. Part 2 - “Solve It!” (small group)


a) Provide each student with a “Solve It” sheet.
b) Say to the class, “Write your name at the top and answer each question. If you need
help solving a problem, you can use the tools we have in class (ten-frame, counters,

Administration: Small group

Materials: Copies of “Missing Whole Equation Cards” (see below), decks of cards with all face
cards removed, manipulatives (such as blocks, bear counters, etc.)

Directions:

1. Organize the students into pairs and give each pair a deck of cards, two Missing Whole
Equation Cards (one for each student), and a set of at least 20 counters.
2. Write the first equation ( = ____ + ____ ) on a board where students can see it.
3. Ask each student to draw a card. Say, “Each of you has a number. Please put your
number and your partner’s number on the blank lines in number 1. For example, if
I have a 5 and you have a 3, we would put ‘5’ and ‘3’ in the blank spaces.”
Demonstrate this by writing 5 and 3 on the blank lines on the board.
4. Say, “Your job is to find out what goes in the empty box. What should go in my
box?” Students should say “8.” Write 8 in the box on the board.
5. Say, “Now find out what should go in your box.” Suggest that they use the counters if
needed.
6. Direct the students to try the remaining equations on their Equation Card. Make sure that
for each equation, they put the drawn numbers on the lines and solve for the number in
the box. Continue to remind them to use the manipulatives if needed.
7. This activity should be repeated occasionally so that each student eventually completes at
least three Missing Whole Equation Cards.

# STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVES CCSS

1 Decompose two digit numbers as the sum of tens and ones for numbers less 1.NBT.2c
than 100.

Administration: Whole class

Materials: Copies of “Decomposing Numbers” worksheet

Directions:

1. Say to the students, “I will tell you how many of a certain object we have in the
classroom. Then you will fill out the worksheet for each object. Let’s do one
together. If I say we have 78 pencils, I will write on my worksheet 7 groups of ten
and 8 ones. Next, I will write the total number of objects as an equation, 7 tens + 8
ones = 78 pencils.

Task 1: Compare Length

# STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVES CCSS

1 Order three objects by length; compare the lengths of two objects 1.MD.1
indirectly by using a third object.
Administration: Whole group

Note: Not all tasks need be administered in a single session. These centers are self-directed. Each center
should take approximately 5 minutes per student to complete. They do not have to be administered at the
same time.

Materials: Copies of “Compare Length” worksheet, Unifix or snap cubes, masking tape or colored tape,
string measuring 15 centimeters, two objects of similar length (e.g., a marker and a new unsharpened
pencil), 2 adult sized shoe boxes with lids (the boxes should be large enough to measure the objects
inside), and 2 larger, sealed boxes with openings to insert answer sheets.

Directions:

1. Set up centers in the classroom as described below. (Important: Use tape to label the
cube sets “A”, “B”, and “C.” It is suggested that multiple copies of each center be set up
so that more than one student can complete each task at the same time.)
Center 1 consists of 3 sets of Unifix/snap cubes for comparison:
 Set “A” – 11 cubes
 Set “B” – 14 cubes
 Set “C” – 13 cubes
 Copies of the answer sheet
 1 box “Answer Bin” to collect the answer sheets

Center 2 consists of two shoeboxes containing common classroom objects of similar


length secured to the inside of each box. For example, you could use:
 Box A: new pencil
 Box B: marker

In addition to the shoeboxes and objects, also provide the following:


 A 15 centimeter length of string (Important: You may choose other objects for
comparison, but one object must be shorter than the string and the other object must
be longer than the string. Secure the objects to the inside of the box to avoid direct
comparison. The goal is for the students to compare the string to each object, not the
objects directly to each other.)

Math K – 6

 Copies of the answer sheet


1 box “Answer Bin” to collect the answer sheets

2. Directions for Center 1:


a. Demonstrate how to navigate the Center. Hold up an answer sheet to explain how
students should write their answer. Say, “When I call your name, go to Center 1.
Take an answer sheet and write your name and date at the top. Next, look at the
different sets of cubes, labeled “A”, “B”, and “C”. Put them in size order from
shortest to longest. Then, write the letter in size order on your sheet. When you
are done, place your answer sheet into the Answer Bin.” Show students the bin so
they know where to leave their answer sheets
b. Check on the students as they complete the task and make sure they understand and
remember the directions.

3. Directions for Center 2:


a. Demonstrate how to navigate the Center. Hold up an answer sheet to explain how
students should write their answer. Say, “When I call your name, go to Center 2. At
the Center, you will find a piece of string, two covered shoeboxes labeled “A”
and “B”, an answer sheet, and Answer Bin. Inside each box is a marker or a
pencil. The rule for the Center is that you cannot take the objects out of the box.
First, take an answer sheet and write your name and date at the top. Next,
uncover Box A. Take the string and compare the length of the string to the
object in Box A.” (You may want to demonstrate how to bring the string into the box
to compare lengths.) “Then answer the question on your answer sheet, “Is the
object shorter or longer than the string?” by circling your answer.” (As you say
this, demonstrate how to complete the answer sheet.) “Do the same for the object in
Box B. Put the covers back on the boxes when you’re done.”
b. Next, say, “After you compare each object to the string, answer the question,
“Which object is longer?” Circle your answer. When you are done, place your
answer sheet into the Answer Bin.” Show students the bin so they know where to
leave their answer sheets.
c. Check on the students as they complete the task and make sure they understand and
remember the directions.

Administration: Small group

Materials: Copies of “Measurement” worksheet, masking tape or colored tape, variety of measuring
tools: 20 small paper clips (3cm); 5 new, unsharpened pencils (19 cm); 6 white board markers (12cm)

Directions:

1. Prior to the activity, attach 1 strip of tape for each student to a flat surface (such as a table
or desk) with predetermined lengths according to the chart below. Label the tape “1,”
“2,” and “3.” Each student will be given a different object as a measuring tool for each
strip of tape as listed on the chart. (Important: Teachers may select different objects as
measuring tools. Be sure to pre-measure the tape with each object so that the total
number of units can be expressed as a whole number.)
2. Say to the students, “Each of you will measure 3 pieces of tape with different
measuring tools. On your answer sheet write your name and date at the top. Using
the measuring tool for your tape, measure the length of tape. Then write the
measuring tool you used and the length of each piece of tape on the worksheet.”
3. Ask a student to retell the directions to be sure they understand the task.

Task 4: Favorite Pizza

# STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVES CCSS

7 Organize, represent, and interpret, data with up to three categories, 1.MD.4


and compare the number counts of data points among the categories,
e.g., equal to, more than, or less than another category.

Administration: Whole class, and then small groups

Materials: A poster with all of the student’s names (or list all of their names on the board) and
copies of the “Favorite Pizza” worksheets.

Directions:

1. Suggestion: You may want break the task up into two parts. For example, have the
students create the data table as part of the morning routine. (See sample data table.)
Later, work with small groups of students to represent and analyze the class data.

2. (Whole Class) Say to the students, “How many of you like to eat pizza? How many of
you like cheese pizza? Pepperoni? Sausage? If you had to choose your favorite kind
of pizza, would it be cheese, sausage, or pepperoni?” (You may want to change the
categories to include what your students like most.)
3. Say, “I am going ask each of you to say whether you would choose a cheese, sausage,
or pepperoni pizza.” Ask each student to say their favorite, and write the word or first
initial of each (“C,” “S,” or “P”) next to their name.

worksheet. Say, “Let’s look at our class list of favorite pizza. We can organize the
list so that we can see if more people liked cheese, sausage, or pepperoni.”
5. Say, “Write your name at the top. At the top of your paper you have boxes to
organize our class list. What should we write in these boxes?” Solicit an answer from
each student.
6. After guiding the students to write the headings, “cheese,” “sausage,” and “pepperoni”
ask the group to fill in the table using the information on the class list.
7. After the students have had several minutes to organize the data, say, “Now let’s use our
pizza table to answer the questions.”
8. Read questions 1-3 aloud. After each question, have the students write the answer on
their sheet. When you get to questions 4-5, say, “Let’s read question 4 and 5.” Read
the questions aloud. You may want to ask students to retell the questions in their own
words. Then say, “To find the answer, look at our pizza table, then write the answers

triangles, half-circles and quarter circles) or three-dimensional
shapes (cubes, right rectangular prisms, right circular cones, and
right circular cylinders) to create a composite shape, and compose
new shapes from the composite shape.

Administration: Individual

Materials: Pattern blocks, or cutouts of the blocks


below (the half-circle and quarter circle are not part
of the pattern block set, these will need to be cut out
for Puzzle 2), a set of Puzzle Cards for each student.

Directions:

1. Make the pattern blocks or cutout shapes


available to the student. Say, “I will give you a series of cards. On each card
there is an outline that you need to fill in like a puzzle. You will see a picture
of the pieces you should use to complete the puzzle.” [Note: the pictures of the
“pieces needed” are not to scale]
2. Give each student a copy of Puzzle 1. Give each student two triangles and say,
“Please complete the puzzle using these triangles.”
3. After the student finishes Puzzle 1, have him or her set the Puzzle aside (it will be
used in Puzzle 4). Then give the student a copy of Puzzle 2. Give the student a
cutout semicircle and a cutout quarter circle. Say, “Please complete the puzzle
using these pieces.”

Administration: Individually

Materials: Construction paper shapes (circles and rectangles – these can be decorated to
appear like a cookie and cake), and pencils.

Directions:

1. Prior to the activity, cut out several circle and rectangle shapes to represent a
cookie (circle) and sheet cake (rectangle). You may want the children to decorate
them in advance.
2. Say to the student, “Let’s take your cookie. Show me how you would share the
cookie equally between 2 people?” Observe the student’s strategy; they may
choose to fold or draw a line to make equal parts.
3. Say, “How many shares are there?” Answer: “two.”
4. Point to half of the cookie and say, “Name this part of the whole cookie.”
Answer: “half” or “half of.” Write the name (“one half” or “half”) on each share.
5. Point to the whole cookie showing the labeled parts and say, “How can you
describe the whole cookie with its shares?” Answer: the whole cookie has “two
shares” or “two halves.”
6. Next, direct the student’s attention to the rectangle and say, “What if we had a
cake in this shape? What shape is it?” Answer: “rectangle.” Then say, “Let’s
look at your cake. How would you cut the cake equally for 4 people?”
Observe the student’s strategy; he/she may choose to fold or draw a line to make
equal parts.
7. Say, “How many shares are there?” Answer: “four.”
8. Hold up a fourth of the cake, “Name this part of the whole cake.” Answer:
“fourth” or “fourth of,” “a quarter,” “a fourth of”, “a quarter of.” Write the name
(“one fourth” or “fourth”) on each share.
9. Say, “If one share of the cake is a fourth (or quarter), then how would you
describe the whole cake with all of its shares?” Put the cake together to draw
attention to the parts of the whole cake. Answer: the whole cake has “four of the
shares,” or “4 shares of fourths (quarters).”
10. If the student does not provide the desired response, encourage him/her to think of
other ways to describe or name the whole cake.

Ali There are already 20 cubes in the box. It takes 14 more
cubes to fill the bottom of the box. Then it takes 29 cubes
to fill each of the next 4 layers. So the volume is
20  14  4  29 cubic centimeters.
Brooks I just figured out how many cubes it takes for the length

multiplied them together 6  5  5 .

Carter The front of the box is 5 cubes by 5 cubes, or 25 cubes.


There are 6 faces of the box, so 25 cubes per face times 6
