To make learning fun and easier for children, manipulatives are used. Children start with exploring, counting, experimenting, sorting, and explaining. In kindergarten, the math curriculum is focused on the basics. This is where primary geometry skills begin. Analyzing Shapes (G.4, G.5, G.6) -Students learn the concept of sides, corners, and edges.Recognize Shapes (G.2, G.3) -Students name a pick out the names of various shapes.Relative Position (G.1) -Where is an object based on another object? This is the concept explored in these worksheets.Classifying Objects into Groups (MD.3) -We have students identify likenesses and group things that have similar qualities.What Doesn't Belong? (K.MD.A.3) -This is a starter skill for sorting and grouping.Who Weighs More or Less? (K.MD.A.2) -It is too early to bring in the concept of mass, so we focus on the concept over heavier or lighter.In some cases you need to read into it a bit. Big and Small (K.MD.A.2) -We compare two images.Above and Below, Left and Right (K.MD.A.2) -Students learn how to express the basic position words.Comparing Measures (Length and Weight) (MD.2) -These worksheets focus on how to compare measures that are within the same measurement system and cross system measures.This helps the students adapt to the process much quicker. Describing Measurements (MD.1) -This takes the stance that we need to relate measure to everyday things.Picture Addition (K.NBT.A.1) -We start to form the concept of grouping to form a total value.Number Line Addition (K.NBT.A.1) -This always seems to move to the right, that is what addition is.This will start students down the path of understanding and using the concept of place value. Ones and Tens Place Value Blocks (NBT.1) -It is often helpful to pivot to this after picture math.Making The Number Ten (OA.4) -We get very creative here and find a wide array of hoops to jump through to complete this goal.The smaller portion of a subtraction operation. Decomposing Numbers Up To 20 (OA.3) -To decompose is to breakdown or remove from something.Basic Addition and Subtraction Word Problems (OA.2) -We now start to show students how math can come from a Language Arts form.When performing subtraction it is often helpful to have students cross out what is being taken away. Picture Subtraction (K.OA.A.1) -Using images in math really helps students understand concepts better.Number Line Subtraction (K.OA.A.1) -This provides a great way to see what is physically happen when you take something away., OA.5) -The plus and the minuses will get them going up and down on the number line. Comparing Numbers Up to 10 (CC.6, CC.7) -This is where the skill of greater than, less than, equal arise from.Naming Numbers (K.CC.7) -Just recognizing numbers is the first step in this process.Number Comparisons (CC.7) -This is where students actually begin to attribute value towards integers.Counting How Many There Are Present (CC.5) -This is very similar to counting, but in this case students are tasked with taking the temperature of the room.Understanding Cardinal Numbers (CC.4) -Cardinal numbers tell us the quantity of something.Ordinal Numbers (K.CC.2, K.CC.4) -Understand how to order things and explain the order is the first step towards learning how to sort items.Counting Objects to 20 (CC.3) -Start with objects and then replace them with numerals or integers.Skip Counting By 3s (K.CC.A.2) -Naturally we advance just a little more ahead.Skip Counting By 2s (K.CC.A.2) -I really like to make sure students are comfortable counting to 30 before I help them make this progression.Counting Forward (CC.2) -This is the natural progression, but it is often overlooked.Counting to 100 (CC.1) -The absolute best way to getting better at this is simply practice, practice, and more practice! Did we mention practice?.
