Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) Common Core Aligned Version 4 Page 1 of 17 Common Core Goal Structure Version 4 Created by NWEA in 2013 Using CCSSO 2010 Common Core Standards for Mathematics K-12 The NWEA Goal Structure is a document that represents the content and structure of a state’s standards documents. Goal structures are created through an alignment process that links state standards documents to the NWEA item bank. The MAP tests and associated reports for teachers and students are based upon this structure and alignment. The alignment process begins with a thorough review of a state’s standards documents by NWEA’s curriculum specialists. The general goal areas or strands within a state’s standards that appear across grade levels become the goals in the goal structure (indicated below as bold). Areas in a state’s standards documents that are determined to be sub-domains of the goals/strands become the sub-goals in the goal structure (indented under each goal below). Goal and sub-goal names from the Goal Structure are shortened for technical reasons to create the headings in DesCartes. Report Names are shortened further to accommodate report specifications.

Mathematics 2-5 Goal Structure Mathematics 2-5 DesCartes Mathematics 2-5 Report Names Operations and Algebraic Thinking Operations and Algebraic Thinking Algebraic Thinking Represent and solve problems involving the four operations: Understand and apply properties of operations and the relationship between addition and subtraction; add and subtract within 20; work with addition and subtraction equations; work with equal groups of objects to gain foundations for multiplication; understand properties of multiplication and the relationship between multiplication and division; multiply and divide within 100; write and interpret numerical expressions. Represent and Solve Problems Analyze patterns and relationships: Identify and explain patterns in arithmetic; gain familiarity with factors and multiples; identify arithmetic patterns and explain them using properties of operations; generate a number or shape pattern that follows a given rule; generate two numerical patterns using two given rules, form ordered pairs consisting of corresponding terms from the two patterns, and graph the ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. Analyze Patterns and Relationships
