Number and Operations in Base Ten
- A.
Understand place value.2.NBT.A
- 1.
Know that the three digits of a three-digit number represent amounts of hundreds, tens, and ones (e.g., 706 can be represented in multiple ways as 7 hundreds, 0 tens, and 6 ones; 706 ones; or 70 tens and 6 ones).2.NBT.A.1
- 2.
Recognize, describe, extend, and create patterns when counting by ones, twos, fives, tens, and hundreds and use those patterns to predict the next number in the counting sequence up to 1000 through counting.2.NBT.A.2
- 3.
Read and write numbers to 1000 using standard form, word form, and expanded form.2.NBT.A.3
- 4.
Compare two three-digit numbers based on the meanings of the digits in each place and use the symbols >, =, and < to show the relationship.2.NBT.A.4
- 1.
- B.
Use place value understanding and properties of operations to add and subtract.2.NBT.B
- 5.
Fluently add and subtract within 100 using properties of operations, strategies based on place value, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.2.NBT.B.5
- 6.
Add up to four two-digit numbers using properties of operations and strategies based on place value.2.NBT.B.6
- 7.
Add and subtract within 1000 using concrete models, drawings, strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction to explain the reasoning used. (Explanations may include words, drawing, or objects.)2.NBT.B.7
- 8.
Mentally add or subtract 10 or 100 to/from any given number within 1000.2.NBT.B.8
- 5.
- A.
Measurement and Data
- A.
Measure and estimate lengths in standard units.2.MD.A
- 1.
Measure the length of an object in whole number units by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes.2.MD.A.1
- 2.
Measure the length of an object using two different whole number units of measure and describe how the two measurements relate to the size of the unit chosen.2.MD.A.2
- 3.
Estimate lengths using whole number units of inches, feet, yards, centimeters, and meters.2.MD.A.3
- 4.
Measure, using whole number lengths, to determine how much longer one object is than another and express the difference in terms of a standard unit of length.2.MD.A.4
- 1.
- B.
Relate addition and subtraction to length.2.MD.B
- 5.
Add and subtract within 100 to solve contextual problems, with the unknown in any position, involving lengths that are given in the same units by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown to represent the problem.2.MD.B.5
- 6.
Represent whole numbers as lengths from 0 on a number line and know that the points corresponding to the numbers on the number line are equally spaced. Use a number line to represent whole number sums and differences of lengths within 100.2.MD.B.6
- 5.
- C.
Work with time and money.2.MD.C
- 7.
Tell and write time in quarter hours and to the nearest five minutes (in a.m. and p.m.) using analog and digital clocks.2.MD.C.7

- 10.
Draw a pictograph (with a key of values of 1, 2, 5, or 10) and a bar graph (with intervals of one) to represent a data set with up to four categories. Solve addition and subtraction problems related to the data in a graph.2.MD.D.10
- 9.
- A.
Geometry
- A.
Reason about shapes and their attributes.2.G.A
- 1.
Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, and hexagons. Draw two-dimensional shapes having specified attributes (as determined directly or visually, not by measuring), such as a given number of angles/vertices or a given number of sides of equal length.2.G.A.1
- 2.
Partition a rectangle into rows and columns of same-sized squares and find the total number of squares.2.G.A.2
- 3.
Partition circles and rectangles into two, three, and four equal shares. Describe the shares using the words halves, thirds, fourths, half of, a third of, and a fourth of, and describe the whole as two halves, three thirds, four fourths.
