Kindergarten

MK: 11   No MK: 11 at this grade level

First Grade

M1: 11   Identifies objects in the environment given an example of a three-dimensional shape (e.g., show a wooden cylinder and students identify common objects of the same shape).

Second Grade

M2: 11 Identifies three-dimensional shapes (rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, cylinders, or spheres) and their attributes and recognizes them in their environment.

Third grade

MM3:11 Uses properties or attributes (shape of bases or number of lateral faces) to identify, compare, or describe three- dimensional shapes (rectangular prisms, triangular prisms,
    cylinders, or spheres).

Fourth Grade

M4: 11 Uses properties or attributes (shape of bases or number of lateral faces) to identify, compare, or describe three-dimensional shapes(rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, cylinders, or spheres).
            M(G&M)–4–3

Fifth grade

M5: 11 Uses properties or attributes (shape of bases, number of lateral faces, or number of bases) to identify, compare, or describe three-dimensional shapes (rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, cylinders, spheres, pyramids, or cones). M(G&M)–5–3

Sixth Grade

M6: 11 Uses properties or attributes (shape of bases, number of lateral faces, number of bases, number of edges, or   number of vertices) to identify,
            compare, or describe three-dimensional shapes (rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, cylinders, spheres, pyramids, or cones).M(G&M)–6–3

Seventh Grade

M7: 11 Applies the properties of number of vertices, number of edges, faces, and types of angles, symmetry, to  identify and distinguish among
           three-dimensional shapes (rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, pyramids, cubes) and uses properties to solve problems involving three-
           dimensional shapes.
