Operations & Algebraic Thinking Progression Map
From understanding addition as putting together to analyzing patterns and relationships, the arithmetic reasoning thread of elementary math.
Hover a standard to trace what it builds on and what it leads to. Click for details. Solid lines are essential prerequisites, dashed lines are supporting connections. A dashed outline marks a connected standard from a neighboring topic.
How to read this map
Each chip is one standard, placed in its grade. A line between two standards means the earlier one was verified as a prerequisite for the later one, against the official framework documents and published curriculum progressions. If a student is stuck on a standard, look one column left. If they have mastered it, the lines to the right show where that skill goes next. Every chip links to a full breakdown of the standard with teaching ideas. How these connections are verified.
