5. Use the terms inches, feet, yards, centimeters, meters etc.
6. tell time to the quarter hour 
7. Describe, identify, create and sort and build with shapes (squares, triangles, circles, rectangles etc.)
8. Identify a variety of geometric shapes in everyday structures 
9. Describe locations on a grid - up four and over two etc.
10. Identify, describe, reorganize and extend patterns with more than one attribute
11. Give specific rules about patterns for numbers, shapes, pictures and objects
12. Identify and describe patterns in the world around us (wallpaper, paint etc)

 Haven't done yet:

1. Measure with a variety of cups, rulers and measuring spoons 
2.  Use a thermometer
3. Compare a variety of measurement tools
4. count money to a dollar including being able to create different sets that equal a dollar
5. Use graphs to record number of pets, hair colour temperature with 1 and 2 attributes
6. Design or construct bar graphs and include pertinent information
7. Interpret a variety of picture and bar graphs and give explanations
8. Investigate what happens when coins are flipped and die are rolled
