Here's an analysis of the grade-level math standards represented in the sources you've provided:
- Kindergarten Math Standards: Source outlines specific math standards for kindergarten, categorized into "Counting and Cardinality," "Operations and Algebraic Thinking," "Number and Operations in Base Ten," "Measurement and Data," and "Geometry." Source further details these standards, listing examples like:
- Counting objects by ones and tens.
- Writing numbers from 0 to 20.
- Understanding addition as putting together and adding to.
- Fluently adding and subtracting within 5.
- Recognizing and comparing objects as longer, shorter, larger, smaller, etc.
- Grade 1 Math Standards: Source introduces the Grade 1 math standards, again emphasizing the four critical areas of (1) operations and algebraic thinking, (2) numbers and operations in base ten, (3) measurement and data, and (4) geometry. Specific examples of these standards include:
- Solving addition and subtraction word problems.
- Understanding what the digits mean in two-digit numbers (place value).
- Measuring lengths of objects.
- Making composite shapes.
- Grade 2 Math Standards: Source presents the Grade 2 math standards, maintaining the focus on the four critical areas. Standards mentioned include:
- Solving problems with addition and subtraction, including two-step word problems.
- Fluently adding and subtracting within 20 and working with numbers up to 100.
- Understanding place value in three-digit numbers.
- Measuring and estimating lengths.
- Relating addition and subtraction to length.
- Telling time.
- Working with money.
- Building and drawing 2-D and 3-D shapes.
- Grade 3 Math Standards: Source introduces the Grade 3 standards, with multiplication and division becoming more prominent. Specific examples for this grade level include:
- Understanding how to multiply and divide within 100.
- Solving word problems using multiplication and division.
- Understanding fractions as numbers.
- Finding areas of shapes.
- Grade 4 Math Standards: The sources don't provide a dedicated overview of Grade 4 standards, but some individual standards and concepts associated with this grade level are mentioned in the data from Green Bank Elementary. These include:
- Identifying the place value of a digit in a whole number and in a decimal fraction.
- Identifying equivalent expressions that represent the associative property of multiplication.
- Reading and interpreting tally charts.
- Grade 5 Math Standards: Similar to Grade 4, the sources don't explicitly list Grade 5 standards, but some concepts and skills are indicated within the Green Bank data, such as:
- Determining measures of central tendency and dispersion.
- Identifying the name for a 7-digit whole number.
- Extrapolating from bar graphs, line graphs, and tables.
- Grade 6 Math Standards: Source outlines the critical areas for Grade 6 math, which include:
- (1) Connecting ratio and rate to whole number multiplication and division.
- (2) Completing understanding of division of fractions.
- (3) Extending the number system to include negative numbers.
- (4) Writing, interpreting, and using expressions and equations.
- Grade 7 Math Standards: Source describes the four critical focus areas for Grade 7:
- (1) Developing understanding of and applying proportional relationships.
- (2) Developing understanding of operations with rational numbers.
- (3) Working with linear equations.
- (4) Solving problems involving scale drawings and informal geometric constructions.
- Grade 8 Math Standards: Source indicates the three critical focus areas for Grade 8 math, including:
-
- (1) Formulating and reasoning about expressions and equations.
- (2) Grasping the concept of a function.
- (3) Analyzing two- and three-dimensional space and figures using distance, angle, similarity, and congruence.
- High School Math Standards: Source discusses how math standards are organized at the high school level, mentioning that:
- Standards are grouped by conceptual category (number system, algebra, functions, geometry, modeling, and statistics).
- Two pathways are offered: Integrated Pathway and Traditional Pathway.
- Appendices A and B provide further details on standard alignment for specific high school courses.
The sources you've shared provide a good overview of the math standards for various grade levels in West Virginia, with particular emphasis on the elementary and middle school years. It's important to remember that these standards represent a framework, and individual schools may have their own curricula and assessments tailored to these standards.
