Working toward the goals of the Essential Learnings in mathematics, each kindergarten child will understand concepts and apply procedures in the following areas:

 Number Sense:

• Makes one-to-one correspondence (more, fewer, same).
• Counts objects one by one.
• Counts objects or events.
• Orders numerically.
• Uses ordinal numbers (first, second, third,....)
• Recognizes and writes numerals.
• Prepares for addition and subtraction.
• Uses estimates to make predictions.

 Measurement:

• Explores measurement (time, weight, length, temperature).
• Estimates measurement of objects (height, weight, length,...)
• Uses measurements in everyday situations (calendar, time, money,...).

 Spatial Sense:

• Describes relative location of objects to each other.
• Understands how geometric shapes and objects are related.
• Constructs 2-dimensional shapes.

 Probability and Statistics:

• predicts.
• Collects and organizes data
• Participates in experiments and activities.
• Records data using real or pictorial symbols (charts, graphs).
• Reads information from charts and graphs.
• Verifies results.

 Functions & Relationships:

• uses guess and check in the search for patterns.
• Explores, creates, identifies, extends, and applies patterns using manipulative objects.
• Uses manipulatives to solve simple equations.
• Shows equal and unequal using manipulatives.
