1.G.A.1 Reason with shapes and their attributes.
Distinguish between defining attributes (e.g., triangles are closed and three sided) versus non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size) build and draw shapes to possess defining attributes.

1.G.A.2 Reason with shapes and their attributes.
Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, and quarter circles) or three-dimensional shapes (cubes, right rectangular prisms, right circular cones, and right circular cylinders) to create a composite shape, and compose new shapes form the composite shape.

1.G.A.3 reason with shapes and their attributes.
Partition circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, fourths, and quarters, and use the phrases half of, fourth of, and quarter of. Describe the whole as two of, or four of the shares. Understand for these exapl,es that decomposing into more equal shares creates smaller shares.
