Computer Science Teachers Association K–12 CS Standards

• Collaboration 1:3–2. Work cooperatively and collaboratively with peers, teachers, and others using technology.

• Computational Thinking 1:3–1. Use technology resources (e.g., puzzles, logical thinking programs) to solve age-appropriate problems.

• Computational Thinking 1:3–2. Use writing tools, digital cameras, and drawing tools to illustrate thoughts, ideas, and stories in a step-by-step manner.

• Computing Practice and Programming 1:3–3 Create developmentally appropriate multimedia products with support from teachers, family members, or student partners.

• Computational Thinking 1:3–4. Recognize that software is created to control computer operations.

• Computing Practice and Programming 1:3–4. Construct a set of statements to be acted out to accomplish a simple task.

• Computing Practice and Programming 1:3–5 Careers: Identify jobs that use computing and technology.

• Computers and Communication Devices—1A.1 Computers: Use standard input and output devices to successfully operate computers and related technologies.

 

Next Generation Science Standards

• ETS1.A Defining and Delimiting Engineering Problems

  • Asking questions, making observations, and gathering information are helpful in thinking about problems.

  • Before beginning to design a solution, it is important to clearly understand the problem.

• ETS1.B Developing Possible Solutions—Designs can be conveyed through sketches, drawings, or physical models. These representations are useful in communicating ideas from a problem’s solutions to other people.

• ETS1.C Optimizing the Design Solution—Because there is always more than one possible solution to a problem, it is useful to compare and test designs.

• Science and Engineering Practice—Asking Questions and Defining Problems—Asking questions and defining problems in K–2 builds on prior experiences and progresses to simple descriptive questions that can be tested.

• Science and Engineering Practice—Use tools and/or materials to design and/or build a device that solves a specific problem or a solution to a specific problem.

• Science and Engineering Practice—Generate and/or compare multiple solutions to a problem.

• Science and Engineering Practice—With guidance, plan and conduct an investigation in collaboration with peers (for K).

 

Common Core State Standards: Math

• 2.OA.B.2 Fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies. By end of grade 2, know from memory all sums of two one-digit numbers.

• 2.OA.C.3 Work with equal groups of objects to gain foundations for multiplication.

• 2.NBT.B.5 Fluently add and subtract within 100 using strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.

• 2.MD.B.6 Represent whole numbers as lengths from 0 on a number line diagram with equally spaced points corresponding to the numbers 0, 1, 2, ..., and represent whole-number sums and differences within 100 on a number line diagram.

• 2.MD.C.7 Tell and write time from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes, using a.m. and p.m.

• 2.G.A.2 Partition a rectangle into rows and columns of same-size squares and count to find the total number of them.

• 2.G.A.3 Partition circles and rectangles into two, three, or four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, thirds, half of, a third of, etc., and describe the whole as two halves, three thirds, four fourths. Recognize that equal shares of identical wholes need not have the same shape.

 

Common Core State Standards: English Language Arts

• SL.2.1 Participate in collaborative conversations with diverse partners about grade 2 topics and texts with peers and adults in small and larger groups.

• SL.2.1.A Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions (e.g., gaining the floor in respectful ways, listening to others with care, speaking one at a time about the topics and texts under discussion).

• SL.2.1.B Build on others' talk in conversations by linking their comments to the remarks of others.

• SL.2.1.C Ask for clarification and further explanation as needed about the topics and texts under discussion.
