A. Types of numbers (whole, prime, irrational, complex, etc.) A1. Count using whole numbers (to 10,000) and by 2’s, 3’s, 5’s, 10’s, 25’s, and 100’s. A1. Use expanded notation to represent whole numbers or decimals. A1. Represent and use numbers in equivalent forms (integers, fractions, decimals, percents, exponents, scientific notation, and square roots). A1.  Use operations such as opposite, reciprocal, absolute value, raising to a power, finding roots, and logarithms.
A2. Apply number patterns (even and odd) and compare values of numbers on the hundred board. A2.  Develop and apply number theory concepts (e.g., primes, factors, multiples, and composites) to represent numbers in various ways. A2. Simplify numerical expressions involving exponents, scientific notation, and using order of operations.
A3. Use concrete objects to count, order, and group. A3. Use simple concepts of negative numbers such as on a number line, in counting, and temperature. A3. Distinguish between and order rational and irrational numbers.
A4. Demonstrate understanding of one-to-one correspondence. A4. Apply base ten place value concepts to hundred billions. A4. Apply ratio and proportion to mathematical problem situations involving distance, rate, and time.
A5. Apply base ten place-value concepts and numeration to counting, ordering, and grouping. A5. Describe and compare quantities by using whole numbers up to hundred billions. A5. Simplify and expand algebraic expressions using exponential forms.
A6. Use the number line model to demonstrate integers and their applications.
A7. Use the inverse relationships between addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and exponential and root extraction to determine unknown quantities in equations.
B. Equivalent forms (fractions, decimals, percents, etc.) B1. Use whole numbers and fractions to represent quantities. B1. Apply number theory concepts to rename a number quantity.
B2. Represent equivalent forms of the same number through the use of concrete objects, drawings, word names, and symbols. B2. Use models to represent fractions and decimals.
B3. Use drawings, diagrams, or models to show the concept of fraction as part of a whole. B3. Describe and compare quantities by using simple decimals.
B4. Recognize the relationship between fractions, decimals, and percents.
