Students should also use dominate letter sounds to write unknown words.
Reading:
Students should show a thinking process when at difficulty {thinking about the story, using picture clues, monitoring with known words (word wall words), rereading, and using the first letter to confirm or disconfirm} with little or no prompting while reading fluently at level 10. Students should also retell stories and summarize what the stories are about.
MATHEMATICS
Students should demonstrate understanding of addition and subtraction. Students should use appropriate computational procedures to solve real-world problems and explain their thinking. Students should analyze two and three-dimensional geometric shapes, describe spatial relationships using geometry, and use geometric modeling to solve problems.
