Additional standards/ practices that are to be taught in this course:
 MAFS.1.MD.3.4: Organize, represent, and interpret data with up to three categories; ask and answer questions about the total number of data points,
how many in each category, and how many more or less are in one category than in another.
 MAFS.1.MD.1.a: Understand how to use a ruler to measure length to the nearest inch.
a. Recognize that the ruler is a tool that can be used to measure the attribute of length.
b. Understand the importance of the zero point and end point and that the length measure is the span between two points.
c. Recognize that the units marked on a ruler have equal length intervals and fit together with no gaps or overlaps. These equal interval distances
can be counted to determine the overall length of an object.

LAFS.1.SL.1.1: Participate in collaborative conversations with diverse partners about grade 1 topics and texts with peers and adults in small and larger
groups.
a. Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions (e.g., listening to others with care, speaking one at a time about the topics and texts under
discussion).
b. Build on others’ talk in conversations by responding to the comments of others through multiple exchanges.
c. Ask questions to clear up any confusion about the topics and texts under discussion.
LAFS.1.RI.1.1: Ask and answer questions about key details in a text.
LAFS.1.RI.2.4: Ask and answer questions to help determine or clarify the meaning of words and phrases in a text.
LAFS.1.RI.4.10: With prompting and support, read informational texts appropriately complex for grade 1.
Integrate Common Core Standards for Mathematical Practice (MP) as applicable:
 MAFS.K12.MP.1.1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
 MAFS.K12.MP.2.1 Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
 MAFS.K12.MP.3.1 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
 MAFS.K12.MP.4.1 Model with mathematics.
 MAFS.K12.MP.5.1 Use appropriate tools strategically.
 MAFS.K12.MP.6.1 Attend to precision.
 MAFS.K12.MP.7.1 Look for and make use of structure.
 MAFS.K12.MP.8.1 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
English Language Development Standards:
 ELD.K12.ELL.SC.1 English language learners communicate information, ideas and concepts necessary for academic success in the content area of
Science.
 ELD.K12.ELL.SI.1 English language learners communicate for social and instructional purposes within the school setting.
English Language Development ELD Standards Special Notes Section:
Teachers are required to provide listening, speaking, reading and writing instruction that allows English language learners (ELL) to communicate
information, ideas and concepts for academic success in the content area of Science. For the given level of English language proficiency and with visual,
graphic, or interactive support, students will interact with grade level words, expressions, sentences and discourse to process or produce language
necessary for academic success The ELD standard should specify a relevant content area concept or topic of study chosen by curriculum developers and
teachers which maximizes an ELL's need for communication and social skills. To access an ELL supporting document which delineates performance
