Common Core Math: Have your students REALLY mastered that math skill?

Common Core Math: Have your students REALLY mastered that math skill?

How can you be sure that you are fully addressing all aspects of each common core math standard?

 That is the question that I asked myself when I created my Activities by the Standard resources for first grade and second grade. I’ve created resources that helps you streamline your instruction, reduce planning time, and ensures that you address every aspect of every common core math skill!

By focusing on each standard on its own and teaching it completely, you will be able to truly know whether or not your students completely understand the concept before moving on to a new skill! Many activities out there claim to address a standard, but they also claim to address multiple standards at the same time. While, of course, you can work on more than one skill at once, I’ve found that often it only sort of kind of addresses some of the standards in which it claims to. That is why I created these comprehensive resources so you can truly isolate each skill. This makes completing standards based report cards so much easier. It also gives you complete confidence when discussing with parents exactly what skills your students need to focus on!

I’ve done the legwork for you so you can focus on the important part: working with your students to help them gain the foundational math skills they need! So, let’s take a peek to see what exactly is included for each and every common core math standard for first and second grade!Common Core math skills for first grade and second grade- addition, subtraction, place value- all standards are covered with the comprehensive resources and ideas!
