KINDERGARTEN By the end of kindergarten, students understand the consistency of small numbers, quantities and shapes in their everyday environment. They count, compare, describe, and sort objects, and develop a sense about properties and patterns, including probability and statistics. KINDERGARTEN
ALGEBRA STANDARDS THE
STUDENT WILL: 1. compare collections of objects to determine more, less, and equal. 2. recognize and create a variety of sets and patterns using symbols. 3. recognize that addition or subtraction is used to solve problems. 4. recognize and explain + and - symbols. 5. use symbols to represent known and unknown quantities. 6. use informal methods to solve everyday problems. 7. explore and model possible addition and subtraction combinations for a given number. KINDERGARTEN
GEOMETRY STANDARDS THE STUDENT WILL: 1. identify and draw plane geometric figures. (example: square, rectangle, circle, triangle) 2. identify and describe solid figures. (example: cube and sphere) 3. compare and sort plane figures based on observable attributes. 4. identify and describe geometric objects in the environment and describe their position. (example: such as next to, top, bottom) 5.
explore various geometic patterns. KINDERGARTEN
MEASUREMENT STANDARDS THE STUDENT WILL: 1. identify coins and their value. (example: penny, nickel, dime) 2. explore and compare orientation in time. (example: yesterday, today, tomorrow, days, hours, minutes, weeks, months, years, seasons) 3. explore length, weight, and volume of objects using standard and non-standard units. 4. order a group of objects by measurable attributes. 5. explore various tools used in measurements. 6. compare objects or events using direct comparison according to a given attribute. example: length (longer/shorter), height (taller/shorter), volume (holds more/holds less) 7. compare temperatures of different objects. (example: hot water, cold water, ice cubes) KINDERGARTEN
NUMBER SENSE STANDARDS THE
STUDENT WILL: 1. count and group numbers, objects, and simple events. 2. recognize patterns from counting by number groups, using concrete objects and a calculator. (example: 2s, 5s, 10s) 3. represent numbers through the use of physical models, word names, and symbols. 4. identify ordinal positions of objects in a set. (example: 1st, 2nd, 3rd ) 5. use objects to model addition and subtraction. 6. determine the number of objects in a set when one object is added or subtracted. 7. demonstrate and describe that a whole is composed of fractional parts using things encountered in daily experiences. 8. represent problem situations using concrete objects. 9. estimate answers to problems using comparative words. (example: greater, fewer, more, less) 10. explain how to solve story and picture problems. 11.
explore place value by grouping objects by tens and ones. 12. order a set of numbers based on value. 13. use relationship vocabulary to describe value and magnitude of objects. (example: bigger, smaller, more, less, same, equal) KINDERGARTEN
PATTERNS, RELATIONS, AND FUNCTIONS STANDARDS THE
STUDENT WILL: 1. sort and classify objects according to similar attributes. (example: size, shape, or color) 2. identify common attributes found in different groupings. 3. explore effects of change on a pattern. 4. identify and extend repeating patterns found in common objects, sounds, and movements. 5. create repeating patterns. 6. identify potential arrangements/combinations for sets of three objects. KINDERGARTEN
STATISTICS & PROBABILITY STANDARDS THE
STUDENT WILL: 1. describe ways to sort and/or group given sets of objects or data. 2. collect and record information using tallies, picture graphs, or other strategies. 3. describe and compare observable quantities of collected data. (example: the flavor of ice cream most people liked) 4. explore chance using game situations and spinners. explore the concept of probability through the use of chance events. (example: coin toss, dice, spinners) |
