Kindergarten
Curriculum
Math
| By the end of Kindergarten,
students understand the consistency of small numbers, quantities
and simple shapes in their everyday environment. They count,
compare, describe, sort objects, and develop a sense about properties
and patterns. The following are some examples of skills and
concepts developed in the areas of: |
Number
Sense
- match numerals to sets
of numbers
- count with one-to-one
correspondence (touch objects while counting) to 30
- comprehend relationships
between numbers to 30
- understand simple addition
and subtraction to 10 with manipulatives
Algebra, Functions and
Patterns
- sort and classify objects
by attribute
Measurement and Geometry
- compare length, weight,
and capacity
- demonstrate an understanding
of concepts of time and tools that measure time
- identify and compare
by attributes-circle, triangle, square, rectangle, cone, sphere,
and cube
Statistics, Data Analysis
and Probability
- identify, extend , and
describe simple patterns with shape, size or color
- collect information
- record results using
objects, pictures, and picture graphs
Mathematical Reasoning
- use tools, strategies,
manipulatives or sketches to model problems
- solve problems in reasonable
ways and explain reasoning
- make decisions about
how to solve a problem
