1st Grade Curriculum night

◼ Respectful ◼ Responsible ◼ Safe ◼ Kind These are the core values that will guide our behavior expectations throughout the building.

Mental Math Practice Integrated Tasks • Think flexibly • Focus on critical • Solve complex about numbers areas of learning problems • Develop accurate • Collaborate in • Build and efficient small groups perseverance strategies • Solve problems • Discuss reasoning • Explain thinking independently with others Standards for Mathematical Practice • Develop processes to engage in all math content

Make sense of problems and persevere in 1. solving them. 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 4. Model with mathematics. 5. Use appropriate tools strategically. 6. Attend to precision. 7. Look for and make use of structure. 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

• Developing understanding of addition, subtraction and strategies for addition and subtraction within 20 • Developing understanding of whole number relationships and place value, including grouping in tens and ones • Developing understanding of linear measurement and measuring lengths as iterating length units • Reasoning about attributes of, and composing and decomposing geometric shapes

◼ Relationships ◼ Change ◼ Place

• What makes sound? • What patterns exist with creating sound? • How do musical instruments produce sound? • Can we talk to each other without using our voices?

Priority Standards ● Demonstrate control of impulsive behaviors. ● Identify ways to work and play well with others. ● Demonstrate appropriate social and classroom behavior. ● Identify approaches to resolving conflicts constructively. ● Make positive choices when interacting with classmates.

◼ I use student data and observation to determine appropriate support. ◼ I provide opportunities that reinforce learning and offer additional support by scaffolding content based on grade level targets and reteaching. ◼ I use flexible groups that respond to students’ needs. This grouping allows me to target specific skills and build background knowledge. ◼ I access with the support of a grade level Instructional Assistant, two first grade Enrollment Assistants, Reading Specialist, Learning Behavioral Specialist, and Learning Support Coach. ◼ I utilize the gradual release model of “I Do, We Do, You Do.”
