Using a basic fact strategy
Basic Fact Strategies
Composing 10 in a variety of ways
o Students will independently draw and show an understanding of the
different ways to make 10, such as 5 + 5 = 10, 6 + 4 = 10, 3 + 7 = 10
Measurement
o Students will be using nonstandard units to describe the length of
objects.
Place Value

and place value
o Students will compose, decompose, and represent numbers using place
value up to 120.

Exit Ticket

These assessments are not on the Report Card. This is a way of checking
your child’s understanding of a math concept
Multiple of 10 plus a one-digit number – Exit Ticket
o Students will solve a story problem using numbers, pictures and words
to determine the sum of a multiple of 10 plus a one digit number up to
99.


Make up different surveys with your child and allow them to collect the data
from you and different family members and friends. Organize the data
collected using tally marks, show the data collected by making a picture
graph and bar graph. Ask question using the data collected. Finally, decide
what conclusion and you can draw from the data collected.
Hiding Assessment by Kathy Richardson
This assessment is given at the beginning, middle and end of the school year
and it is on the Report Card.
This assessment is given to show if a student has a true understanding of a
number. Students need to know that 5 is more than just 5 fingers or 5 objects. It
is 2 and 3 together, 1 and 4 together, and so on….
