Spiral Review TEKS

Comparing Quantities

  • K.2E generate a set using concrete and pictorial models that represents a number that is more than, less than, and equal to a given number up to 20 [at least 10 in this unit]
  • K.2F generate a number that is one more than or one less than another number up to at least 20 [10 in this unit]
  • K.2G compare sets of objects up to at least 20 [10 in this unit] in each set using comparative language
  • K.2H use comparative language to describe two numbers up to 20 [at least 10 in this unit] presented as written numerals

Comparing Measurable Attributes

  • K.7A give an example of a measurable attribute of a given object, including length, capacity, and weight
  • K.7B compare two objects with a common measurable attribute to see which object has more of/less of the attribute and describe the difference
