3rd Grade Reporting Categories
Reporting
Categories
Elementary
Understand numbers and ways of representing numbers, relationships among
numbers and number systems. Understand meaning of operations and how they
relate to one another and compute fluently to make reasonable estimates.
Use place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multidigit arithmetic.
Develop an understanding of fractions as numbers.
Solve problems involving measurement and estimation of intervals of time, liquid
volumes, and masses of objects. Represent and interpret data. Understand
concepts of area and relate area to multiplication and to addition.
4th Grade Reporting Categories

Elementary
Use the four operations with whole numbers to solve problems. Gain familiarity
with factors and multiples.
Generalize place value understanding for multi-digit whole numbers. Use place
value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit
arithmetic.
Extend understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering.
Build fractions from unit fractions by applying and extending previous
understandings of operations on whole numbers. Understand decimal notation
for fractions, and compare decimal fractions.
Solve problems involving measurement and conversion of measurements from
a larger unit to a smaller unit. Represent and interpret data. Understand
concepts of angle and measure angles.

3RD GRADE: MEASUREMENT, DATA, AND GEOMETRY
This item may require
a graphic response
using a drag and
drop.
4TH GRADE: OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING
Jack bought 2 umbrellas and 3 hats and spent between $30 and
$50. Each umbrella costs the same amount. The price of a hat is
$4.00. What is the least amount Jack could have spent on an
umbrella? What is the most Jack could have spent on an
umbrella?
This type of item would require an equation response.
