Use spatial language (e.g., above, below) to describe two-dimensional shapes.

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Demonstrate an understanding of the following terms: above, below, under, on top of.
  • Using 2 dimensional shapes, place one object above or below the other object and then describe the position using spatial language.
Representation:
  • Given a picture of two objects, use positional words (e.g., above, below) to describe their orientation.

Number: MAFS.K.G.1.AP.1a Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14 Cluster: Identify and describe shapes (squares, circles, triangles, rectangles, hexagons, cubes, cones, cylinders, and spheres). (Additional Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
