Mathematics
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.
Number and Operations in Base Ten - Students will: Use place value understanding and properties of operations to add and subtract.
Add and subtract within 1000 using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method. Understand that in adding or subtracting three-digit numbers, one adds or subtracts hundreds and hundreds, tens and tens, ones and ones; and sometimes it is necessary to compose or decompose tens or hundreds.
Expressions and Equations – Students will: Solve real-life and mathematical problems using numerical and algebraic expressions and equations.
Solve multistep real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form, convert between forms as appropriate, and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies.

Expressions and Equations – Students will: Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.
Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents.
Patterns, Algebra, and Functions Patterns: Identify patterns and apply pattern recognition to reason mathematically while integrating content from each of the other strands.
Recognize, describe, create, and analyze numerical and geometric sequences using tables, graphs, words, or symbols; make conjectures about these sequences.
Number and Operations in Base Ten - Students will: Generalize place value understanding for multi-digit whole numbers.
Read and write multi-digit whole numbers using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form. Compare two multi-digit numbers based on meanings of the digits in each place, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.
Operations and Algebraic Thinking - Students will: Write and interpret numerical expressions.
Use parentheses, brackets, or braces in numerical expressions, and evaluate expressions with these symbols.
Ratios and Proportional Relationships – Students will: Analyze proportional relationships and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.
Identify the constant of proportionality (unit rate) in tables, graphs, equations, diagrams, and verbal descriptions of proportional relationships.
Expressions and Equations – Students will: Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions.
Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents.
Students understand the relationships among numbers, quantities, and place value in whole numbers up to 100. They understand that fractions may refer to parts of a set and parts of a whole.
Count by ones, twos, fives, and tens to 100.
Science
Earth and Space Science: The students will develop an understanding of the properties of earth materials, the structure of the Earth system, the Earth's history, and the Earth's place in the universe. Structure of the Earth: identifying the characteristics and uses of minerals and rocks and recognizing that rocks are mixtures of minerals. (2, 3, 4)
Mathematics
Number and Operations in Base Ten - Students will: Extend the counting sequence.
Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120. In this range, read and write numerals and represent a number of objects with a written numeral.

Use place value understanding to round multi-digit whole numbers to any place.
Science
Earth and Space Science - Students will: Describe factors that cause changes to Earth's surface over time. Examples: earthquakes, volcanoes, weathering, erosion, glacial erosion or scouring, deposition, water flow, tornadoes, hurricanes, farming and conservation, mining and reclamation, deforestation and reforestation, waste disposal, global climate changes, greenhouse gases
Comparing constructive and destructive natural processes and their effects on land formations. Examples: constructive - volcanic and mountain-building processes; destructive - erosion by wind, water, and ice
Concepts of Earth Science (SD1, SD2, SD3, SD4) The student demonstrates an understanding of geochemical cycles by applying knowledge of the water cycle to explain changes in the Earth's surface.
Structure of the Earth: Describe the composition and interactions between the structure of the Earth and its atmosphere.
