Counting & place value 6 skills

Counting & number sense

  • Greater than, less than Compare the biggest place first: the open side of the symbol faces the bigger number.
  • Ordering numbers Compare the numbers place by place, then write them in the order asked.
  • Skip counting to 1,000 Find the step first: does the row go up by 5, by 10, or by 100? Then keep that step for every blank.

Place value & rounding

  • 10 or 100 more or less Ten more or less moves the tens digit. One hundred more or less moves the hundreds digit. The other digits stay put.
  • Expanded form Expanded form stretches a number out to show what each digit is worth, like 358 = 300 + 50 + 8.
  • Hundreds, tens & ones A 3-digit number is made of hundreds, tens, and ones. Count each kind, then write the digits in order.

Addition & subtraction 12 skills

Facts & fluency

  • Addition mad minute Work fast and left to right. Skip a hard one and come back; the clock does not wait.
  • Addition within 20 Make a ten first when you can. It turns hard facts like 9 + 6 into easy ones like 10 + 5.
  • Balancing equations The equal sign means both sides are the same amount, so check that they balance.
  • Fact families The three numbers in the roof are a family. Write all four facts they make together.
  • Missing addends Find the number that makes the equation true. Count up from the part you already know.
  • Subtraction within 20 Think addition to subtract: for 13 − 8, ask what you add to 8 to make 13.

Multi-digit addition & subtraction

Multiplication & division 1 skills

  • Multiplication facts 0–12 Multiplication is repeated addition. When you know your times tables, you can solve problems quickly without counting on your fingers.

Word problems 7 skills

Factors & patterns 1 skills

  • Even & odd numbers Even numbers split into pairs with none left over. Check the ones digit: 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 mean even.

Fractions 1 skills

Shapes & angles 4 skills

  • Identifying 3d shapes Solid shapes take up space. Name the whole solid, not just the flat face you can see.
  • Partitioning shapes Equal shares means every piece is exactly the same size, a fair share for everyone.
  • Sides & vertices Sides are the straight edges and vertices are the corners. Mark where you start so you count each one just once.
  • Partitioning rectangles Finish each grid with equal squares. Then count the squares.

Measurement 7 skills

  • Counting coins Count the coins that are worth the most first, then count on. A dime is small, but it is worth 10 cents.
  • Making change Start at the cost and count up to the money paid. What you count along the way is the change.
  • Measuring length Find where the bar starts and where it ends. The length is the distance between them.
  • Telling time The short hand tells the hour and the long hand tells the minutes. Read the short hand first.
  • Estimating length Choose a sensible estimate for each object. Pictures are not actual size.
  • Length word problems Complete each problem. Write the answer with its unit when needed.
  • Drawing clock hands Draw a short hour hand and a long minute hand for each time.

Data & graphing 3 skills

  • Bar & line plots Read the scale, not the picture: the height of a bar or the count of Xs tells you the number.
  • Pictographs Read the key first. Count the symbols, then multiply by what each one stands for.
  • Tally charts Count tally bundles by fives. The stroke that crosses the group is the fifth mark, not an extra one.
