With 1.12C, Grade 1 students practice Compose correspondence in multiple representations and contexts.
Students may rely on procedures without reasoning or mix key terms. Build in quick oral explanations, error analysis, and vocabulary supports tied to 1.12C.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to 1.12C.
Standard 1.12C describes the essential skills and understandings for Compose correspondence in Grade 1. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Compose correspondence, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
