PR Patterns and Relations

  • PR.1 Use patterns to describe the world and to solve problems.

    • PR.1.1 Demonstrate an understanding of repeating patterns (two to four elements) by:

      • PR.1.1.a describing patterns using manipulatives, diagrams, sounds and actions.

      • PR.1.1.b reproducing patterns using manipulatives, diagrams, sounds and actions.

      • PR.1.1.c extending patterns using manipulatives, diagrams, sounds and actions.

      • PR.1.1.d creating patterns using manipulatives, diagrams, sounds and actions.

      • PR.1.1.1 Describe a given repeating pattern containing two to four elements in its core.

      • PR.1.1.2 Identify and describe errors in a given repeating pattern.

      • PR.1.1.3 Identify and describe the missing element(s) in a given repeating pattern.

      • PR.1.1.4 Create and describe a repeating pattern, using a variety of manipulatives, diagrams, sounds and actions.

      • PR.1.1.5 Reproduce and extend a given repeating pattern, using manipulatives, diagrams, sounds and actions.

      • PR.1.1.6 Identify and describe a repeating pattern in the environment, e.g., in the classroom, outdoors, using everyday language.

      • PR.1.1.7 Identify repeating events; e.g., days of the week, birthdays, seasons.

    • PR.1.2 Translate repeating patterns from one representation to another.

      • PR.1.2.1 Represent a given repeating pattern, using another mode; e.g., actions to sound, colour to shape, ABC ABC to bear eagle fish bear eagle fish.

      • PR.1.2.2 Describe a given repeating pattern, using a letter code; e.g., ABC ABC…

    • PR.1.3 Sort objects, using one attribute, and explain the sorting rule.

      • PR.1.3.1 Identify a common attribute in a given set of objects.

      • PR.1.3.2 Choose a single attribute to sort a given set of objects, sort the set, and explain the sorting rule.

      • PR.1.3.3 Sort a given set of objects, using a given sorting rule.

      • PR.1.3.4 Determine the difference between two given pre-sorted sets of objects, and explain a possible sorting rule used to sort them.

  • PR.2 Represent algebraic expressions in multiple ways.

SS Shape and Space

  • SS.1 Use direct and indirect measurement to solve problems.

    • SS.1.1 Demonstrate an understanding of measurement as a process of comparing by:

      • SS.1.1.a identifying attributes that can be compared.

      • SS.1.1.b ordering objects.

      • SS.1.1.c making statements of comparison.

      • SS.1.1.d filling, covering or matching.

      • SS.1.1.1 Identify common attributes, such as length (height), mass (weight), volume (capacity) and area, that could be used to compare two given objects.

      • SS.1.1.2 Order a set of objects by length (height), mass (weight), volume (capacity) or area, and explain their ordering.

      • SS.1.1.3 Compare two given objects, and identify the attributes used to compare.

      • SS.1.1.4 Determine which of two or more given objects is longest/shortest by matching, and explain the reasoning.

      • SS.1.1.5 Determine which of two or more given objects is heaviest/lightest by comparing, and explain the reasoning.

      • SS.1.1.6 Determine which of two or more given objects holds the most/least by filling, and explain the reasoning.

      • SS.1.1.7 Determine which of two or more given objects has the greatest/least area by covering, and explain the reasoning.

  • SS.2 Describe the characteristics of 3-D objects and 2-D shapes, and analyze the relationships among them.

    • SS.2.2 Sort 3-D objects and 2-D shapes, using one attribute, and explain the sorting rule.

    • SS.2.3 Replicate composite 2-D shapes and 3-D objects.

      • SS.2.3.1 Select 2-D shapes from a given set to reproduce a given composite 2-D shape.

      • SS.2.3.2 Select 3-D objects from a given set to reproduce a given composite 3-D object.

      • SS.2.3.3 Predict and select the 2-D shapes used to produce a composite 2-D shape, and verify by deconstructing the composite shape.

      • SS.2.3.4 Predict and select the 3-D objects used to produce a composite 3-D object, and verify by deconstructing the composite object.

    • SS.2.4 Compare 2-D shapes to parts of 3-D objects in the environment.
