This comprehensive guide explores the distinction between strategies and algorithms in mathematics education for students from Pre-K through Grade 5. It details how students utilize various mathematical strategies for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, while also emphasizing the importance of standard algorithms by the end of Grade 4 and Grade 5. The guide covers key concepts in counting, cardinality, operations, algebraic thinking, measurement, geometry, and number operations, providing educators with insights to effectively teach these essential mathematical skills.

Math Domains • Counting and Cardinality (P-K) • Operations and Algebraic Thinking (P-5) • Measurement and Data (P-5) • Geometry (P-5) • Number and Operations in Base Ten (K-5) • Number and Operations – Fractions (3-5)
Math Models as Strategies Algorithms VS. Strategies: • The Standards distinguish strategies from algorithms • Students use strategies for addition &subtraction in K-3 • Fluently add & subtract whole numbers using standard algorithms by the end of Grade 4 • Use strategies for multiplication & division 3-4 but use standard algorithm by the end of Grade 5 • Computation Algorithm: A set of predefined steps applicable to a class of problems that gives the correct result in every case when the steps are carried out correctly • Computation Strategy: Purposeful manipulations that may be chosen for specific problems, may not have a fixed order, and may be aimed at converting one problem into another
Example of ProgressionsNumbers in Base 10 Kindergarten • Draw special attention to 10 • Children learn to view the whole numbers 11 through 19 as ten ones and some more ones • They decompose 10 into pairs such as 1/9, 2/8, 3/7 …
Grade 1 • View ten ones as a unit called a ten • Compose and decompose this unit flexibly • View the numbers 11-19 as composed of one ten and some ones • See two digit numbers as representing some tens • Students add and subtract using this understanding
Grade 2 • Students extend their base-ten understanding to hundreds • Add and subtract within 1,000 • Use composing and decomposing • Fluent with addition and subtraction within 100
Grade 3 • Major focus is multiplication • Adding and subtracting fluently within 1,000
Grade 4 • Use standard algorithm to add and subtract • Multiply and divide with multi-digit numbers • Extend knowledge on base-ten system • Work with decimals – tenths & hundredths
Grade 5 • Decimals to the thousandths place • Reason using all four operations with decimals to the hundredths place • Standard multiplication algorithm with multi-digit numbers • Reason about dividing whole numbers with two-digit divisors
Standards for Mathematical Practice • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them • Reason abstractly and quantitatively • Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others • Model with mathematics • Use appropriate tools strategically • Attend to precision • Look for and make use of structure • Look for & express regularity in repeated reasoning
