In prekindergarten through grade 2 all students should
- NM-ALG.PK-2.1: Understand patterns, relations, and functions
- NM-ALG.PK-2.2: Represent and analyze mathematical situations and structures using algebraic symbols
- NM-ALG.PK-2.3: Use mathematical models to represent and understand quantitative relationships
- NM-ALG.PK-2.4: Analyze change in various contexts
|
Understand patterns, relations, and functions
- sort, classify, and order objects by size, number, and other properties;
- recognize, describe, and extend patterns such as sequences of sounds and shapes or simple numeric patterns and translate from one representation to another;
- analyze how both repeating and growing patterns are generated.

Represent and analyze mathematical situations and structures using algebraic symbols
- illustrate general principles and properties of operations, such as commutativity, using specific numbers;
- use concrete, pictorial, and verbal representations to develop an understanding of invented and conventional symbolic notations.

Use mathematical models to represent and understand quantitative relationships
- model situations that involve the addition and subtraction of whole numbers, using objects, pictures, and symbols.

Analyze change in various contexts
- describe qualitative change, such as a student's growing taller;
- describe quantitative change, such as a student's growing two inches in one year.
