Priority+Standards


 * The following are kindergarten priority standards:**


 * Counting and Cardinality**
 * **K.CC.1** Count to 100 by ones and by tens.
 * **K.CC.4** Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality,
 * a When counting objects, say the number names in the standard order, pairing each object with one and only one number name and each number name with one and only one object.
 * b Understand that the last number name said tells the number of objects counted. The number of objects is the same regardless of their arrangement or the order in which they were counted.
 * c. Understand that each successive number name refers to a quantity that is one larger.
 * **K.CC.5** Count to answer “how many?” questions about as many as 20 things arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scattered configuration; given a number from 1–20, count out that many objects.


 * Operations and Algebraic Thinking**
 * **K.OA.1** Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings, sounds (e.g., claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.
 * **K.OA.2** Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem.
 * **K.OA.3** Decompose numbers less than or equal to 10 into pairs in more than one way, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each decomposition by a drawing or equation (e.g., 5 = 2 + 3 and 5 = 4 + 1).


 * Numbers and Base Ten**
 * **K.NBT.1** Compose and decompose numbers from 11 to 19 into ten ones and some further ones, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each composition or decomposition by a drawing or equation (e.g., 18 = 10 + 8); understand that these numbers are composed of ten ones and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.


 * Measurement and Data**
 * **K.MD.1** Describe measurable attributes of objects, such as length or weight. Describe several measurable attributes of a single object.


 * Geometry**
 * **K.G.1** Describe objects in the environment using names of shapes, and describe the relative positions of these objects using terms such as // above //, // below // , // beside // , // in front of // , // behind // , and // next to //.
 * **K.G. 4** Analyze and compare two- and three-dimensional shapes, in different sizes and orientations, using informal language to describe their similarities, differences, parts (e.g., number of sides and vertices/“corners”) and other attributes (e.g., having sides of equal length).
