Number and Operations in Base Ten skills
Recognize that in a multi-digit number, a digit in one place represents 10 times what it represents in the place to its right and 1/10 of what it represents in the place to its left.
Read, write, and compare decimals to thousandths.
Use place-value understanding to round decimals and perform operations with whole numbers and decimals to hundredths.
Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm and understand the place-value system with powers of 10.
North Dakota administered its own state assessment program (the NDSA, a Cambium computer-adaptive test in grades 3-8 and 10; replaced by ND A+ beginning spring 2025). An official NDSA mathematics public-facing CAT blueprint (Cambium/NDDPI, Oct 2020) does exist and lists per-grade reporting categories with percentage ranges, but its full per-grade table could not be retrieved character-for-character from a citable primary source for transcription here (the Cambium content CDN blocks programmatic access). The NDSA reporting categories are the CCSS-M grade-level domains: the assessment was built on North Dakota's 2017 math standards, which are verbatim CCSS-M organized by grade-level domains. The coverage map below uses North Dakota's 2023-standards-style domain/standard codes (e.g. 3.AR.OA) but the skill content is CCSS-M.
An official NDSA mathematics CAT blueprint (Cambium/NDDPI public-facing CAT version, Oct 2020) publishes per-grade reporting-category percentage ranges (e.g. grade 3 Operations and Algebraic Thinking ~31-34%, Number and Operations in Base Ten ~22-24%; grade 6 groups Ratios & Proportional Relationships and The Number System ~28-34% and Expressions and Equations ~25-29%). The complete per-grade table could not be retrieved verbatim from a citable primary source (the Cambium content CDN returns HTTP 403 to programmatic fetches), so domain weights in the mapping are left null rather than transcribing partial/uncertain figures or splitting blueprint percentages across the grade-6+ domain groupings.
