3 The student uses geometric concepts and procedures in a variety of situations.
   3.1 The student recognizes geometric shapes and describes their attributes using concrete objects in a variety of situations.
      3.1.A1 The student demonstrates how (2.4.A1c):
      3.1.A1A a geometric shape made of several plane figures (circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, ellipses) can be separated to make two or more different plane figures;
      3.1.A1B several plane figures (circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, ellipses) can be combined to make a new geometric shape;
      3.1.A1C several solids (cubes, rectangular prisms, cylinders, cones, spheres) can be combined to make a new geometric shape.
      3.1.K1 recognizes and draws circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, and ellipses (ovals) (plane figures/two-dimensional figures) (2.4.K1f).
      3.1.K2 The student recognizes and investigates attributes of circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, and ellipses (plane figures) using concrete objects, drawings, and appropriate technology (2.4.K1f).
      3.1.A2 The student sorts plane figures and solids (circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, ellipses, cubes, rectangular prisms, cylinders, cones, spheres) by a given attribute (2.4.A1c).
      3.1.K3 The student recognizes cubes, rectangular prisms, cylinders, cones, and spheres (solids/three-dimensional figures) (2.4.K1f).
   3.2 The student estimates and measures using standard and nonstandard units of measure with concrete objects in a variety of situations.
      3.2.A1 The student compares and orders concrete objects by length or weight (2.4.A1a) ($).
      3.2.K1 The student uses whole number approximations (estimations) for length and weight using nonstandard units of measure (2.4.K1a) ($), e.g., the width of the chalkboard is about 10 erasers long or the weight of one encyclopedia is about five picture books.
      3.2.K2 The student compares two measurements using these attributes (2.4.K1a) ($):
      3.2.K2A longer, shorter (length);
      3.2.K2B taller, shorter (height);
      3.2.K2C heavier, lighter (weight);
      3.2.K2D hotter, colder (temperature).
      3.2.A2 The student compares the weight of two concrete objects using a balance (2.4.A1a).
      3.2.A3 The student locates and names concrete objects that are about the same length, weight, or volume as a given concrete object (2.4.A1a) ($).
      3.2.K3 The student reads and tells time at the hour and half-hour using analog and digital clocks (2.4.K1a).
      3.2.K4 The student selects appropriate measuring tools for length, weight, volume, and temperature for a given situation (2.4.K1a) ($).
      3.2.K5 The student measures length and weight to the nearest whole unit using nonstandard units (2.4.K1a) ($).
      3.2.K6 The student states the number of days in a week and months in a year (2.4.K1a).
   3.3 The student develops the foundation for spatial sense using concrete objects in a variety of situations.
      3.3.A1 The student shows two concrete objects or shapes are congruent by physically fitting one object or shape on top of the other (2.4.A1a).
      3.3.K1 The student describes the spatial relationship between two concrete objects using appropriate vocabulary (2.4.K1a), e.g., behind, above, below, on, under, beside, or in front of.
      3.3.K2 The student recognizes that changing an object's position or orientation does not change the name, size, or shape of the object (2.4.K1a).
      3.3.A2 The student gives and follows directions to move concrete objects from one location to another using appropriate vocabulary (2.4.A1a), e.g., right, left, up, down, behind, or above.
      3.3.K3 The student describes movement of concrete objects using appropriate vocabulary (2.4.K1a), e.g., right, left, up, or down.
   3.4 The student identifies one or more points on a number line in a variety of situations.
      3.4.A1 The student solves real-world problems involving counting and adding whole numbers from 0 to 50 using a number line (2.4.A1a) ($), e.g., Nancy has 23¢. She finds 18¢ more in her pocket. How much money does she now have?
      3.4.K1 The student locates and plots whole numbers from 0 through 100 on a segment of a number line (horizontal/vertical) (2.4.K1a), e.g., using a segment of a number line from 45 to 60 to locate the whole number 50.
      3.4.K2 The student describes a given whole number from 0 to 100 as coming before or after another number on a number line (2.4.K1a).
      3.4.K3 The student uses a number line to model addition and counting using whole numbers from 0 to 100 (2.4.K1a).
