Symmetry. Holiday House
Finding symmetry in both man-
made things and nature. Looking
for symmetry in everyday things.
4.G.A.3
Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-
dimensional figure as a line across the
figure such that the figure can be folded
along the line into matching parts.
Identify line-symmetric figures and draw
lines of symmetry.

Figure out all of the perimeters
and areas of tables that 32
people can sit at.
.4.MD.A.3
Apply the area and perimeter formulas
for rectangles in real world and
mathematical problems. For example,
find the width of a rectangular room
given the area of the flooring and the
length, by viewing the area formula as a
multiplication equation with an
unknown factor.

Cleary, B. (2005) The Mission of
Addition. Millbrook Press
Combining two or more numbers
to come up with their total.
1.OA.A.1
Use addition and subtraction within 20
to solve word problems involving
situations of adding to, taking from,
putting together, taking apart, and
comparing, with unknowns in all
positions, e.g., by using objects,
drawings, and equations with a symbol
for the unknown number to represent
the problem.

Sneed, D. & Fisher D. (2006) One
Odd Day. Sylvan Dell Publishing.
Follow a boy throughout his day
and find out which numbers are
odd and which are even.
2.OA.C.3
Determine whether a group of objects
(up to 20) has an odd or even number of
members, e.g., by pairing objects or
counting them by 2s; write an equation
to express an even number as a sum of
two equal addends.

their orientations or overall size.

Count. Voyager Books.
Discover all the combinations of
two numbers you can use to add
up to 7 following ducks.
1.OA.C.6
Add and subtract within 20,
demonstrating fluency for addition and
subtraction within 10. Use strategies
such as counting on; making ten (e.g., 8
+ 6 = 8 + 2 + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14);
decomposing a number leading to a ten
(e.g., 13 - 4 = 13 - 3 - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9);
using the relationship between addition
and subtraction (e.g., knowing that 8 + 4
= 12, one knows 12 - 8 = 4); and creating
equivalent but easier or known sums
(e.g., adding 6 + 7 by creating the known
equivalent 6 + 6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13).


Leedy, L. (1997) Measuring
Penny. Henry Holt and Company.
Follow Lisa around as she finds
out all of the different ways she
can measure her dogs.
3.MD.A.2
Measure and estimate liquid volumes
and masses of objects using standard
units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and
liters (l).1 Add, subtract, multiply, or
divide to solve one-step word problems
involving masses or volumes that are
given in the same units, e.g., by using
drawings (such as a beaker with a
measurement scale) to represent the
problem.2
3.MD.B.4
Generate measurement data by
measuring lengths using rulers marked
with halves and fourths of an inch. Show
the data by making a line plot, where
the horizontal scale is marked off in
appropriate units whole numbers,
halves, or quarters.

Scieszka, J. & Smith, L. (1995)
Math Curse. Viking Press
Follow a boy around as he works
through all sorts of math
problems going on throughout
his day.
4.OA.A.2
Multiply or divide to solve word
problems involving multiplicative
comparison, e.g., by using drawings and
equations with a symbol for the
unknown number to represent the
problem, distinguishing multiplicative
comparison from additive comparison.

4.MD.A.2
Use the four operations to solve word
problems involving distances, intervals
of time, liquid volumes, masses of
objects, and money, including problems
involving simple fractions or decimals,
and problems that require expressing
measurements given in a larger unit in
terms of a smaller unit. Represent
measurement quantities using diagrams
such as number line diagrams that
feature a measurement scale
