Kindergarten
Here are all the units that your child will be studying in math in their kindergarten year. Consult with your child's teacher to learn what unit your child is working on at any given time.
Unit 1: Position, Length, Height, and Sorting
You can use words to describe the position of an object.
You can compare objects by telling which is longer (or taller) and which is shorter.
You can sort objects by their attributes. You can also count how many of each object are in a group and sort the groups by count.
Unit 2: Numbers to 5, Shapes, and Weight
Counting each object in a group tells you how many are in the group.
You say one number for each object in the group when you count.
Knowing how to count helps you know what number is one more than another number.
Comparing two groups tells you if one group has more, less, or the same number of objects as the other.
Naming and describing solid shapes can help you describe your world.
Unit 3: Addition and Subtraction within 5 and shapes
Adding one group to another group makes more.
When you take away objects from a group, you are subtracting.
Two-dimensional shapes have attributes that can be described.
You can identify shapes as flat or solid. Flat shapes make the faces of solid shapes.
You can use words to name a shape and describe its position.
Unit 4: Numbers to 10 and shapes
You can compare two numbers to decide if one number is greater than, less than, or equal to the other.
Number partners combine to make a new number. You can find number partners by breaking apart a number into smaller parts.
You can put together two or more shapes to make larger shapes.
Unit 5: Numbers to 100
Teen numbers are the numbers 11 to 19.
Knowing how to count by 10s can help you learn to count to 100.
Number partners combine to make a new number. You can find number partners by breaking apart a number into smaller parts.
Unit 6: Addition and Subtraction within 10
Knowing how to add and subtract with numbers to 5 can help you learn how to add and subtract with numbers to 10.
You can use different tools to help you tell and solve addition and subtraction story problems.
You can write an equation to show what is happening in a problem.
