Operations and Algebraic Thinking

 * Write and interpret numerical expressions.
 * Analyze patterns and relationships.

Number and Operations in Base Ten

 * Understand the place value system.
 * Perform operations with multi-digit whole numbers and with decimals to hundredths.

Number and Operations—Fractions

 * Use equivalent fractions as a strategy to add and subtract fractions.
 * Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions.

Measurement and Data

 * Convert like measurement units within a given measurement system.
 * Represent and interpret data.
 * Geometric measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and to addition.

 * Classify two-dimensional figures into categories based on their properties.

Mathematical Practices

 * 1) Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
 * 2) Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
 * 3) Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
 * 4) Model with mathematics.
 * 5) Use appropriate tools strategically.
 * 6) Attend to precision.
 * 7) Look for and make use of structure.
 * 8) Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
