Kindergarten Math
Parent Friendly Summary of the Common Core State Standards for Kindergarten(from the National PTA)
- Counting objects to tell how many there are
- Comparing two groups of objects to tell which group, if either, has more; comparing two written numbers to tell which is greater
- Acting out addition and subtraction word problems and drawing diagrams to represent them
- Adding with a sum of 10 or less; subtracting from a number 10 or less; and solving addition and subtraction word problems
- Adding and subtracting very small numbers quickly and accurately (e.g., 3 + 1) Correctly naming shapes regardless of orientation or size (e.g., a square oriented as a “diamond” is still a square)
