Mathematics
Geometry – Students will: Graph points on the coordinate plane to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
Use a pair of perpendicular number lines, called axes, to define a coordinate system with the intersection of the lines (the origin) arranged to coincide with the 0 on each line and a given point in the plane located by using an ordered pair of numbers, called its coordinates. Understand that the first number indicates how far to travel from the origin in the direction of one axis, and the second number indicates how far to travel in the direction of the second axis, with the convention that the names of the two axes and the coordinates correspond (e.g., x-axis and x-coordinate, y-axis and y-coordinate).
Represent and interpret data.
Explain the classification of data from real-world problems shown in graphical representations including the use of terms range and mode with a given set of data. (L)
Measurement: Understand and apply appropriate units of measure, measurement techniques, and formulas to determine measurements.
Apply measurement skills to measure length, mass, and capacity using metric units.
Number and Operations in Base Ten - Students will: Use place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic.
Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.

Number and Operations in Base Ten - Students will: Use place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic.
Multiply a whole number of up to four digits by a one-digit whole number, and multiply two two-digit numbers, using strategies based on place value and the properties of operations. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
English Language Arts
Reading: Word Recognition, Fluency, and Vocabulary Development: Students understand the basic features of words. They see letter patterns and know how to translate them into spoken language by using phonics (an understanding of the different letters that make different sounds), syllables, and word parts (-s, -ed, -ing). Decoding and Word Recognition: Recognize common abbreviations (Jan., Fri.).
Increasing word understanding, word use, and word relationships increases vocabulary. Students can:
Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning word and phrases based on grade 3 reading and content, choosing flexibly from a range of strategies. (CCSS: L.3.4)
Use knowledge of word relationships to identify antonyms or synonyms to clarify meaning.
Conventions of Standard English
Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking.
Form and use the progressive (e.g., I was walking; I am walking; I will be walking) verb tenses.
Writing and speaking for expression. Students will communicate effectively through speaking and writing. Demonstrate competence in the skills and strategies of the writing process.
Suggest and implement reflection and revision (with assistance) on target elements by:
a. clarifying ideas, adding descriptive words and phrases,
b. sequencing events and ideas,
c. combining short, related sentences, and
d. strengthening word choice.
Writing: English Language Conventions: Students write using Standard English conventions appropriate to this grade level. Capitalization: Capitalize all proper nouns (names of specific people or things, such as Mike, Indiana, Jeep), words at the beginning of sentences and greetings, months and days of the week, and titles (Dr., Mr., Mrs., Miss) and initials in names.
Conventions of Standard English
Demonstrate command of the conventions of Standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking.
Explain the function of nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs in general and their functions in particular sentences.
Reading: Comprehension and Analysis of Nonfiction and Informational Text: Students read and understand grade-level-appropriate material. Analysis of Grade-Level-Appropriate Nonfiction and Informational Text: Distinguish between cause and effect and between fact and opinion in informational text.
Vocabulary Acquisition and Use
Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning words and phrases based on Grade 2 reading and content, choosing flexibly from an array of strategies.
Use a known root word as a clue to the meaning of an unknown word with the same root (e.g., addition, additional).
Reading: Students will learn and apply reading skills and strategies to comprehend text. Word Analysis: Students will use knowledge of phonetic and structural analysis to read, write, and spell grade-level text.
Use advanced sound/spelling patterns (e.g., special vowel spellings , multi-syllable words) to read, write, and spell
Reading: Students will learn and apply reading skills and strategies to comprehend text. Word Analysis: Students will use phonetic analysis to read, write, and spell grade-level text.
Use word structure to read text (e.g., onset and rime, prefixes/suffixes, compound words, contractions, syllabication, derivation)
Vocabulary Acquisition and Use
Demonstrate understanding of figurative language, word relationships, and nuances in word meanings.
Explain the meaning of simple similes and metaphors (e.g., as pretty as a picture) in context.
