*Cardinality-- In
n mathemattics, the ca
ardinality of a set is a measure of the
"number of elements of the set". For example, the set A = {2, 4, 6} contains 3
elements, and therefore A has a cardinality of 3.

Category A collection of things sharing a common attribute

Cent The smallest money value in many countries. 100 cents equals one dollar in
the US.

Centimeter A measure of length. There are 100 centimeters in a meter

Circle A figure with no sides and no vertices.

Closed figure the start and end points of a figure are same

*Commutative Property of Addition When two numbers are added, the sum is
the same regardless of the order of the addends. For example 4 + 2 = 2 + 4

Compare To decide if one number is greater than, less than, or equal to another
number . Can also be used to tell how shapes are alike or different.

Compose To put together basic elements. (e.g., Numbers or geometric shapes.)

Cone A geometric solid with a circular base and curved surface.

Count back A way to subtract

Count on A way to add

Counting up A way to determine a difference. Count up from the smaller to the

larger number

Cube A solid figure with six square faces

Customary system the United States standard system of measurement

Cylinder A geometric solid with two circular bases and a curved surface

Data A collection of information

Decompose To separate into basic elements. (e.g., Numbers or geometric shapes.)

Difference The result when one number is subtracted from another

Digit Any of the symbols 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9.

Digital clock uses only numerals to show the time

Dime a coin with the value of 10 cents

Dollar the basic monetary unit and one dollar is equivalent to 100 cents.

Doubles any of the addition facts that have two of the same numbers

Doubles minus 1 An Addition strategy building on the Doubles strategy. When

two consecutive numbers are added (ex: 5+6), the student can think of the Doubles
of the larger number (6+6 =12), and subtract one (to get 11).

Doubles plus 1 An Addition strategy building on the Doubles strategy. When two
consecutive numbers are added (ex: 5+6), the student can think of the Doubles of
the smaller number (5+5 =10), and add one more (to get 11).

Equal Having the same amount. (e.g., 4 equals 3 + 1 means that 4 is the same
amount as 3 + 1.)

Equal groups having the same number of units in each group.

Equal shares the result of dividing a shape or quantity into equal portions

Equation A number sentence with an equal sign. The amount on one side of the
equal sign has the same value as the amount on the other side.

Estimate A close guess of the actual value, usually with some thought or
calculation involved.

Even number Any integer that can be divided exactly by 2

Expanded form a way to write a number that shows the sum of values of each
digit of a number. Example: the expanded form of the number 543 would be
500 + 40 + 3.
Expression A mathematical phrase without an equal sign.
