Identify simple 2-dimensional shapes (triangle, rectangle, square) of different size and in different orientation.
Compare and distinguish 2-dimensional shapes according to features such as sides and corners.
Compose and decompose triangles, squares, and rectangles.
Count up to 100 (includes counting up or down from a given number and identifying a number that is 1 more or 1 less than a given number).
Read and write numerals up to 100.
Recognize and represent numbers up to 100 using a variety of concrete and pictorial models (e.g., number line, block or bar models, and numerals).

Illustrate addition of numbers with sums up to 20 using a variety of concrete and pictorial models and describes addition as "counting up," and "putting together."
Illustrate by applying the following properties of addition, using sums up to 20: a. the sum of zero and any number is equal to the number; b. changing the order of the addends does not change the sum.
Solve problems (given orally or in pictures) involving addition with sums up to 20.
