Math • Operations and Algebraic thinking Be able to solve addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems. • Number and Operations in Base Ten Use place value understanding to perform multi-digit problems. • Numbers and Operations Fractions Develop an understanding of fractions as numbers • Measurement and Data Measure time, liquid volumes, and masses of objects. Understand concepts of area and perimeter. • Geometry Reason with shapes and their attributes.

  4. Literacy • Reading Literature • Text complexity and the growth of comprehension • Reading: Informational Text • Nonfiction • Reading Foundational • Phonics, word recognition, and Fluency

  5. Writing • Opinion Pieces Introduce the topic, Provide reasons, use linking words to connect ideas, and provide a concluding statement • Informative/Explanatory Pieces Introduce the topic, develop the topic with facts, use linking words to connect ideas • Narratives Establish a situation and introduce characters, Use dialogue, put events in chronological order, provide closure
