CURRICULUM
The following goals are at the core of our Kindergarten curriculum. Please note that these are important goals, but they are not the only concepts to which students will be exposed at this grade level. Students will have a rich curriculum, and their experiences in math will introduce them to many new concepts that will deepen over time.
Counting and Cardinality
Know number names and the count sequence
Count to tell the number of objects
Compare numbers
Operations and Algebraic Thinking
Understand addition as putting together and adding to, and understand subtraction as taking apart and taking from.
Number and Operations in Base Ten
Work with numbers 11-19 to gain foundations for place value.
Measurement and Data
Describe and compare measurable attributes.
Classify objects and count the number of objects in each category.
Geometry
Identify and describe shapes.
Analyze, compare, create, and compose shapes.
