2003 ACOS2010 ACOS CURRENT ALABAMA CONTENT PLACEMENT2010 GRADE 1 CONTENT 1.1Demonstrate concepts of number sense by counting forward and backward by ones, twos, fives, and tens up to 100; counting forward and backward from an initial number other than 1; and using multiple representations for a given number Count to 120, starting at any number less than 120. In this range, read and write numerals and represent a number of objects with a written numeral. [1-NBT1] 1.1.B.1Identifying position using the ordinal numbers 1 st through 10 th CONTENT NO LONGER ADDRESSED IN GRADE B.2 Using vocabulary, including the terms equal, all, and none, to identify sets of objects 1.7. Understand the meaning of the equal sign, and determine if equations involving addition and subtraction are true or false. [1-OA7] 1.1.B.3Recognizing that the quantity remains the same when the spatial arrangement changes CONTENT NOW ADDRESSED IN KINDERGARTEN: 1.4.b. Understand that the last number name said tells the number of objects counted. The number of objects is the same regardless of their arrangement or the order in which they were counted. [K-CC4b]

2003 ACOS2010 ACOS CONTENT MOVED TO GRADE 1 IN 2010 ACOS 2.6Solve problems using the associative property of addition Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract. (Students need not use formal terms for these properties.) [1-OA3] (Associative property of addition) 3.1.B.1Comparing numbers using the symbols >, <, =, and Compare two two-digit numbers based on meanings of the tens and ones digits, recording the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, and <. [1-NBT3] 4.10Complete addition and subtraction number sentences with a missing addend or subtrahend Determine the unknown whole number in an addition or subtraction equation relating three whole numbers.

NEW GRADE 1 CONTENT IN 2010 ACOS None

Grade 1 Content Correlation Which 2010 standard(s) correlates to standard 13 from the 2003 ACOS? Is there any additional content related to standard 13 that should be addressed in the upcoming school year? What content has been moved from Grade 3 to Grade 1? Is there any content that is no longer addressed in Grade 1? How many standards? Is there any content that is new to Alabama in Grade 1 in the 2010 ACOS?

How can I be sure my students are prepared for the implementation of the 2010 ACOS in the school year?
