PK.CC Counting and Cardinality

• PK. Know number names and counting sequence
  • PK.CC.1 Listen to and say the names of numbers in many contexts
  • PK.CC.2 Count forward in sequence from 1 – 20
  • PK.CC.3 Understand the relationships between numerals and quantities up to 10
• PK. Count to tell the number of objects
  • PK.CC.4 Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities with concrete objects up to 10
    • PK.CC.4a Use one-to-one correspondence to accurately count up to 7 objects in a scattered configuration
  • PK.CC.5 With guidance and support, count to answer “how many?” questions about as many as 10 things arranged in a line or as many as 7 things in a scattered configuration
• PK. Compare numbers
  • PK.CC.6 Use comparative language, such as more/less than, equal to, to compare and describe collections of objects
  • PK.CC.7 With guidance and support count and group objects by number to ten

PK.OA Operations and Algebraic Thinking

• PK. Understand addition as putting together and adding to, and understand subtraction as taking apart and taking away.
  • PK.OA.1 Use concrete objects to model real-world addition (putting together) and subtraction (taking away) problems up through five

PK.MD Measurement and Data

• PK. Describe and compare measureable attributes
  • PK.MD.1 Recognize the attributes of length, area, weight, and capacity of everyday objects using appropriate vocabulary (e.g., long, short, tall, heavy, light, big, small, wide, narrow)
  • PK.MD.2 Use non-standard and standard techniques and tools to measure and compare the attributes of two or more concrete objects and use words to define attributes of the objects as same/different, more/less, heavy/light
• PK. Classify object and count the number of objects in each category
  • PK.MD.3 Sort, categorize, and classify objects by more than one attribute

PK.G Geometry

• PK. Identify and describe shapes (squares, circles, triangles, rectangles, hexagons, cubes, cones, cylinders, and spheres)
  • PK.G.1 Identify relative positions of objects in space, and use appropriate language (e.g., beside, inside, next to, close to, above, below, apart)
  • PK.G.3 With guidance and support, explore two- and three- dimensional shapes
  • PK.G.2 Identify several basic shapes
• PK. Analyze, compare, create, and compose shapes
  • PK.G.4 With guidance and support, compare and contrast two- and three- dimensional shapes of different sizes describing the way they are the same or different
  • PK.G.5 Identify shapes in the real-world environment
  • PK.G.6 With guidance and support, create and name new shapes formed when putting two shapes together (i.e. two squares together make a rectangle)
