Texas 1st Grade Math: What Students Learn
Texas 1st grade math covers a wide range of foundational topics aligned to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). Students work on number sense up to 120, addition and subtraction within 20, basic geometry, measurement, telling time, and handling money. Each skill builds directly on what students learned in Kindergarten and prepares them for 2nd grade math.
Number Sense and Place Value
First graders in Texas learn to represent, compare, and order whole numbers up to 120. They use place value to understand tens and ones, identify numbers that are greater or less than a given value, and work with 10 more and 10 less. StudyPug's video lessons break these concepts into clear, visual steps that are easy for young learners to follow.
Addition and Subtraction
Students practice joining and separating sets within 20, composing 10 with two or more addends, and applying basic fact strategies. They also learn to solve word problems using concrete models and number sentences, and explore the meaning of the equal sign. These are essential building blocks for all future math.
- Add and subtract within 20 using objects and pictures
- Solve word problems involving joining, separating, and comparing
- Understand the equal sign as a balance between two sides
- Apply properties of operations to add two or three numbers
Geometry and Shapes
1st graders classify two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes using formal geometric language. They identify circles, triangles, rectangles, squares, rhombuses, and hexagons, as well as 3D solids like spheres, cones, cylinders, and prisms. Students also compose shapes and partition figures into halves and fourths.
Measurement, Time, and Data
Texas 1st graders measure the length of objects using same-size units, tell time to the hour and half hour, and collect and display data in picture and bar graphs. These real-world skills help students connect math to everyday life.
Money and Financial Literacy
Students identify U.S. coins by value, count collections of pennies, nickels, and dimes, and are introduced to basic financial concepts like income, spending, saving, and charitable giving. StudyPug covers every one of these TEKS topics with video lessons and practice problems your child can access anytime.
