Ordinal - -being of a specified position or order in a numbered series
- one-to-one correspondence - -counting and quantity principle of
understanding that each object in a group can only be counted once.
- make 10 strategy - -decomposing an addend to make a ten from the other
- counting on strategy - -counting up from the larger addend the number of
times indicated by the smaller addend
- benchmarking strategy - -making "easy" numbers, that might be a
multiple of 10/100/25 that is easier to work with
- front-end strategy - -method of estimating by keeping the first digit in
each number and change the other digits to zeros
- Counting and Cardinality - -Know number names and the count sequence.
Count to tell the number of objects.
Compare numbers.
- partitive division model - -finding the size of groups (given the number of
groups)
- measurement division model - -finding the number of groups (given the
size of groups)
- multiplicative comparison - -Compare by asking or telling how many times
more one amount is as another. e.g. 4 times greater than.
- integer - -All whole numbers (both positive and negative) and zero.
- rational numbers - -Any number that can be expressed as a fraction

increases in proportion as the other decreases.
- distinct morphemes - -the smallest part of a word with meaning, (break in
breakable)
- Phonetically Regular - -a word in which all letters represent their most
common sound, can be decoded
- Linguistic Approach - -Whole-word approach: words are taught in families
as a whole, focus on words instead of isolated sounds, similar spelling
patterns, irregular spelling is taught as sight words
- whole language approach to reading - -balanced literacy approach,
teaches strategies that show how language is a system of parts that work
together to create meaning
- cognitive approach to language - -conscious and reasoned thinking
process, deliberate use of learning strategies and strategies that enhance
comprehension, learning, and retention of information
- sociocognitive approach to language - -views social interaction of speaking
and listening is where most language and communication development takes
place
- Spider Map (Semantic Map) - -Used to investigate and enumerate various
aspects of a central idea, which could be a concept, topic or theme.
