Standards Covered
- OGM.3.OA.4Open Global Math Standards 2026™ · Math · Level 3 / Grade 2 (Age 7) · Grade 2Model, create, and represent foundations of multiplication and division using equal groups, repeated addition, rectangular arrays (up to 5 rows and 5 columns), fair sharing, and grouping; calculate and write mathematical statements using '×', '÷', and '=' symbols.
- OGM.3.OA.6Open Global Math Standards 2026™ · Math · Level 3 / Grade 2 (Age 7) · Grade 2Understand and apply operational properties: commutative and associative properties of addition, commutativity of multiplication, non-commutativity of subtraction and division, and inverse relationships (addition/subtraction and multiplication/division) to verify computations and solve equations.
