MT 1st Grade Math Curriculum
Give your child the support they need to keep up with Montana's 1st grade math curriculum, from adding and subtracting within 20 to understanding place value and shapes.
About 1st Grade Montana math
Montana follows the Montana Content Standards for Mathematics, which organize learning around operations, number sense, measurement, data, and geometry. In 1st grade, students work on addition and subtraction within 20, place value with tens and ones, comparing two-digit numbers, telling time, organizing data, and building with shapes. StudyPug provides lessons and practice problems aligned to these standards so students can move at their own pace.

How StudyPug Helps Montana 1st Grade Math Students
When a student gets stuck on a word problem or struggles to read a clock, StudyPug lets them replay a short video lesson and then try a grade 1 math practice test to check their understanding. Every lesson is broken into small steps so a 1st grader can follow along independently or alongside a parent.
Students who need a quick refresher on earlier skills can also revisit the MT kindergarten math curriculum without leaving the platform, making it easy to fill any gaps before moving forward.
