First Grade Mathematics Content Standards and Practice Standards
What are the mathematics concept acquisition expectations for first grade students?

Operations and Algebraic Thinking

Represents and solves word problems involving addition and subtraction within 20
Understands and applies properties of addition and subtraction
Understands the relationship between addition and subtraction
Is accurate and fluent with addition and subtraction facts through 10
Uses strategies to add and subtract within 20
Works with addition and subtraction equations
Understands the meaning of the equal sign (e.g., 4+1=5, 2+4=7-1)

Numbers and Operation in Base Ten

Counts to 120 beginning at any number less than 120
Reads and writes numerals and can match a written numeral to a group of objects
Understands and uses place value (tens, ones) to solve problems
Compares two-digit numbers based on place value using >, =, < symbols
Mentally finds 10 more or 10 less than any two-digit number
Adds two-digit number and a one-digit number as well as a two-digit number and a multiple of 10, using concrete models, drawings, or strategies based on place value

Measurement and Data

Geometry

Knows the difference between the defining attributes (e.g., 3 sides on a triangle) and non-defining attributes (e.g., color) of shapes
Creates new two-dimensional or three-dimensional shapes from other two-dimensional or three dimensional shapes
Breaks circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares and describes using words (e.g., halves, fourths, quarters)

Standards for Mathematical Practice

The eight standards for mathematical practice describe the “know-how” or habits of mind that we seek to develop in students. These practices define important methods and skills that students need to be mathematically proficient.
