Enduring Understandings
are important ideas that students should carry with them years beyond the
instruction received this year.
-
Numbers can be represented and communicated in different ways.
-
Classifying
objects by attributes; seeing how things are the same and different, is an
important learning skill in all subjects.
Essential Questions
are most important “big picture” questions students should be able to answer
after completing learning activities.
-
How might you show that you know how to count to 10 or more?
-
What are the different ways you can show a pile
of 10 blocks?
-
Tell, show, or explain how you compare
what is the same and/or different about objects? (attributes/characteristics)

Tested Standards
Highest Frequency
 High
Frequency
 Other
Standards and E-Skills
Highest Frequency = the timing, intensity and
level of accountability is extremely high because mastery of these
skills will must be demonstrated at this grade level.
High
Frequency = the timing, intensity and level of
accountability is high because mastery of these skills is expected at this grade level.
Other
Standards and E-Skills = the timing, intensity, and level of mastery are
not urgent. It should be introduced during this time so students can
experience the concept and return in future quarters to strive
towards mastery. |
Standard 1: Number Sense - September
 Order numbers 1 – 20.
Explore numerical properties (adding 0,
the value of 0).
 Create 1-to-1 correspondence with objects (matching numerals to objects).
Standard 3: Data and Graphs
Explore
picture and bar graphs
Standard 4: Geometry - September
Sort and classify objects by attributes (i.e., size, color, shape).
Standard 5: Measurement - September
Explore
attributes of length and weight using non-standard units.

Parents
Your kindergarten child is building skills in the wonderful world
of numbers and mathematics. The most important support you can provide
is lots of practical experiences with numbers and amounts. Start small
with counting a few pennies or other common objects; money in the piggy
bank, candies in a baggie, or grapes in a cup. Counting by ones and
matching objects to numbers in one to one correspondence are important
beginning mathematical concepts for your kindergartener. Give your child
simple experiences measuring various lengths with non-standard units
like paperclips, hand-widths, foot-lengths, etc. Make math
experiences fun, relaxed, and a way to bond with your child.
