Grade 1 Mathematics: Building Number Sense, Shape, Measurement, and Time

An 8-topic learning path aligned with the Alberta Grade 1 Mathematics curriculum overview. Students develop fluency with addition and related subtraction facts to 20, identify and sort two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes, compare and order objects by length, area, and capacity, and recognize repeating cycles of time in nature and on calendars. Learning progresses from concrete exploration to visual representation, mathematical language, problem solving, and application in familiar contexts.

Students build a strong foundation for addition and subtraction by representing quantities to 20 with objects, drawings, ten-frames, number lines, and numerals. They explore how numbers can be composed and decomposed in different ways, such as 7 being 5 and 2 or 6 and 1. Students compare quantities and explain how addition and subtraction describe joining, separating, comparing, and finding missing amounts. Emphasis is placed on explaining thinking with manipulatives, pictures, words, and equations.

Recommended Tasks
  • Build and record different ways to make each number from 0 to 20 using counters, connecting cubes, and ten-frames.
  • Create picture stories for addition and subtraction situations, then write the matching equations.
  • Complete a number-bond investigation for selected numbers, identifying pairs that combine to make 10 and 20.
