Section 1K-2:• Counting and Cardinality

Page 5: The textbook provides daily routines that help students develop their proficiency with both perceptual and conceptual subitizing (being able to “see” the quantity of a set without having to count) as a foundation for single-digit fluency.  For example, students should have plentiful opportunities to develop the ability to recognize the cardinality of a collection of 9 objects arranged in various ways (i.e. 7 and 2, 4 and 5, etc.). See page 4 of CC and OA Progression.

Section 1K-2:• Lessons that lead to 3rd grade multiplication

Page 7: Students engage with addition in ways that prepare them for multiplication.  Examples should include skip counting (2.NBT.2), arrays (2.OA.4) and repeated addition (2.OA.4).  Multiplication itself should not be introduced until 3rd grade.

2, 4, 6, 8, 10…

9

Section 13-5:• Approach to multiplication (page 9)

Students develop an understanding of the meanings for multiplication and division of whole numbers through activities and problems involving equal-sizedgroups, arrays and areamodels.

 

10

Section 13-5:• Approach to fractions (page 11)

· Use of number lines (Number and Operations- Fractions Progression)

· The textbook addresses fractions by using a number line diagram.

· The textbook compares two fractions with the same numerator or the same denominator by reasoning about their size.

Alignment to the (draft) Framework

-Alignment to standards

-Program Organization

-Assessment

-Universal Access

13

Alignment to standards

Part 1: The mathematics content is correct, factually accurate…

-Review various lessons

-Is the content correct?

-Correct definitions

-Use of manipulatives

-No mnemonics or tricks

14

Alignment to standards

Part 2: The materials …include the standards for mathematical practice at each grade level or course.

15

Alignment to standards

Part 3: In any single grade… students and teachers… spend the large majority of their time, approximately three-quarters… on major clusters

16

Alignment to standards

Part 4: Consistent Progressions: Materials are consistent with the progressions in the Standards

Assessment

General materials and SBAC Specific:• Variety of assessments (formative)• Summative• Content and Practice Standards• Concept, computation, fluency and

application• Acceleration and compression aspects
