shapes and solids. This course includes exploring numbers and patterns, in which students will learn about comparing numbers in
relation to other numbers and to the place value system. Students will learn strategies for representing numbers and understanding
patterns. In addition, this course includes understanding addition and subtraction, extending their use to using them together to solve
problems. Students will also learn basic-fact strategies, including counting on and back. Students will learn about geometry and
fractions, including two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes, which they will be able to identify, name, and describe. Money
skills are part of this course, and students will gain an understanding of financial resources, coins, and making transactions. This
course also includes time and probability, as well as measurement. Overall, students will gain problem-solving and critical thinking
(a) Introduction.
(1) The desire to achieve educational excellence is the driving force behind the Texas essential knowledge
and skills for mathematics, guided by the college and career readiness standards. By embedding statistics,
probability, and finance, while focusing on computational thinking, mathematical fluency, and solid
understanding, Texas will lead the way in mathematics education and prepare all Texas students for the
challenges they will face in the 21st century.
(2) The process standards describe ways in which students are expected to engage in the content. The
placement of the process standards at the beginning of the knowledge and skills listed for each grade
and course is intentional. The process standards weave the other knowledge and skills together so that
students may be successful problem solvers and use mathematics efficiently and effectively in daily
life. The process standards are integrated at every grade level and course. When possible, students
will apply mathematics to problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. Students will
use a problem-solving model that incorporates analyzing given information, formulating a plan or
strategy, determining a solution, justifying the solution, and evaluating the problem-solving process
and the reasonableness of the solution. Students will select appropriate tools such as real objects,
manipulatives, algorithms, paper and pencil, and technology and techniques such as mental math,
estimation, number sense, and generalization and abstraction to solve problems. Students will
effectively communicate mathematical ideas, reasoning, and their implications using multiple
representations such as symbols, diagrams, graphs, computer programs, and language. Students will
use mathematical relationships to generate solutions and make connections and predictions. Students
will analyze mathematical relationships to connect and communicate mathematical ideas. Students
will display, explain, or justify mathematical ideas and arguments using precise mathematical
language in written or oral communication.
(3) For students to become fluent in mathematics, students must develop a robust sense of number.
The National Research Council's report, "Adding It Up," defines procedural fluency as "skill in
carrying out procedures flexibly, accurately, efficiently, and appropriately." As students develop
procedural fluency, they must also realize that true problem solving may take time, effort, and
perseverance. Students in Grade 1 are expected to perform their work without the use of calculators.
(4) The primary focal areas in Grade 1 are understanding and applying place value, solving problems
involving addition and subtraction, and composing and decomposing two-dimensional shapes and
three-dimensional solids.
(A) Students use relationships within the numeration system to understand the sequential
order of the counting numbers and their relative magnitude.
(B) Students extend their use of addition and subtraction beyond the actions of joining and
separating to include comparing and combining. Students use properties of operations and the
relationship between addition and subtraction to solve problems. By comparing a variety of
solution strategies, students use efficient, accurate, and generalizable methods to perform
operations.
(C) Students use basic shapes and spatial reasoning to model objects in their environment
and construct more complex shapes. Students are able to identify, name, and describe basic
two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional solids.
(5) Statements that contain the word "including" reference content that must be mastered, while those
containing the phrase "such as" are intended as possible illustrative examples.

wants and needs;
In the previous year, kindergarten, students were required to have an understanding and sense of numbers. The main focus for
students was to understand counting and cardinality, understand addition as joining and subtraction as separating, and compare objects
by measurable attributes. They should know number names and the counting sequence and should be able to apply the principles of
counting to make the connection between numbers and quantities. They should also be able to use meanings of numbers to create
strategies for solving problems and responding to practical situations involving addition and subtraction. Students should know how to
identify characteristics of objects that can be measured and directly compare objects according to these measurable attributes.
This year, in first grade, students are expected to become proficient in an overview of basic mathematical skills. The main
focus is on understanding and applying place value, solving problems that include addition and subtraction, and composing and
decomposing shapes and solids. This course includes exploring numbers and patterns, in which students will learn about comparing
numbers in relation to other numbers and to the place value system. Students will learn strategies for representing numbers and
understanding patterns. In addition, this course includes understanding addition and subtraction, extending their use to using them
together to solve problems. Students will also learn basic-fact strategies, including counting on and back. Students will learn about
geometry and fractions, including two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes, which they will be able to identify, name, and
describe. Money skills are part of this course, and students will gain an understanding of financial resources, coins, and making
transactions. This course also includes time and probability, as well as measurement. Overall, students will gain problem-solving and
addition and subtraction within 1,000, and building foundations for multiplication. Students will have ideas of counting in units and
multiples of thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones and will grasp number relationships in order to demonstrate them in various ways.
Students will be able to identify situations in which addition and subtraction are useful to solve problems and will develop a variety of
strategies to use efficient, accurate, and generalizable methods to add and subtract. Students will also be able to use the relationship
between skip counting and equal groups of objects to represent the addition or subtraction of equivalent sets to build the foundation
This subject relates to other subjects the students are currently taking in that math involves articulating thoughts in sentences to
provide reasoning for problem-solving strategies, which is a skill that transfers over to language arts, especially, although all subjects
require the ability to explain reasoning. Word problems in math require the ability to read. Math is used heavily in science, specifically
when it comes to measurement and weight. In social studies, math is used to interpret charts, graphs, and maps that can be found in
textbooks. The skills that students will learn this year will serve as the foundation for building up those skills next year in math as well
as in other subjects. For example, this year, students are learning how to solve addition and subtraction problems, but next year,
students will have to take that a step further and solve problems with addition and subtraction within 1,000.
Rationale
Math is an important and foundational subject for students to learn and study in school. Math helps students sharpen parts of
their brain, such as the section responsible for visual attention and decision-making, due to the cognitive skills involved. Math also
allows students to grow in their problem-solving skills. It guides students through reasoning and analyzing when they are presented
with problems. In addition, math is essential for many career paths and in living in the world day to day.
Math is used in everyday life and is essential in paying bills, measuring objects, estimating taxes, weighing fruits at the grocery
store, baking cookies, and planning out the distance of a trip. These are just a few of the many times that we will need various math
By studying math in school, students will be better suited to be economists, actuaries, financial analysts, computer research
scientists, mathematicians, teachers, accountants, engineers, or statisticians. Of course, these are not the only jobs involving math.
Construction workers, chemists, architects, bakers, doctors, and astronauts all need math for their work, too. Math can be found in
Math will help students in future schooling, including college or important tests, in that it is building the foundation for future
success, important skills, and a mind geared toward learning. What is taught in first grade math paves the way for the upper level math
that will be taught in high school or college; without it, it cannot be done. Math also encourages critical thinking in students that will
help them in all other subjects. Lastly, math trains the brain to be open to various learning and exposes students to different ways of
