MATH:

(2) Number and operations. The student applies mathematical process standards to understand how to represent and compare whole numbers, the relative position and magnitude of whole numbers, and relationships within the numeration system. The student is expected to: 

• A- count forward and backward to at least 20 with and without objects; 
• B- read, write, and represent whole numbers from 0 to at least 20 with and without objects or pictures; 
• C- count a set of objects up to at least 20 and demonstrate that the last number said tells the number of objects in the set regardless of their arrangement or order; 
• D-recognize instantly the quantity of a small group of objects in organized and random arrangements;

(5) Algebraic reasoning. The student applies mathematical process standards to identify the pattern in the number word list. The student is expected to recite numbers up to at least 100 by ones and tens beginning with any given number

(8) Data analysis. The student applies mathematical process standards to collect and organize data to make it useful for interpreting information. The student is expected to: 

• A- collect, sort, and organize data into two or three categories

English and Language Arts:

Reading

• Hold a book right side up, turn its pages correctly, know that reading moves from top to bottom and left to right.

• Identify different parts of a book (e.g., front and back covers, title page). Identify elements of a story including setting, character, and key events.
• Use titles and illustrations to make predictions about text.
• Retell a main event from a story read aloud.
• Retell important facts in a text, heard or read.

• Media literacy

Writing

• Speak in complete sentences to communicate.

• Use complete simple sentences.

• Form upper- and lower-case letters legibly using the basic conventions of print
(left-to-right and top-to-bottom progression).

• Write one’s own name.

• Introduce Handwriting.

• Plan a first draft by generating ideas through class discussion.

• Share writing with others.

• Dictate or write sentences to tell a story and put the sentences in chronological
sequence.

Word Work

• Identify common sounds that letters represent.

• Use phonological knowledge to match sounds to letters.

• Identify the common sounds that letters represent.

• Identify and read at least 25 high-frequency words from a commonly used list.
• Identify the meaning of specific signs (e.g., traffic signs, warning signs).

• Identify syllables in spoken words.

• Identify the common sounds that letters represent.

• Distinguish between rhyming and non-rhyming words
• Identify and read at least 25 high-frequency words.

Science:

(8) The student knows that there are recognizable patterns in the natural world and among objects in the sky.

8A – Observe and describe weather changes from day to day and over seasons.

8B – Identify events that have repeating patterns, including seasons of the year and day and night.

8C – Observe, describe, and illustrate objects in the sky such as the clouds, Moon, and stars, including the Sun.
