Kindergarten Scope and Sequence for Math - Creative Mathematics

Kindergarten Scope and Sequence for MathM.C. references Math Camp K-1 Instructor Barbara Ann Novellix- Number of timesPlease note: These are only my suggestions and ideas!Fall Sept-Nov.Counting : One to one correspondence, more than, less than, creation andrecognition of setRepresents sets of concrete objects to 20 and uses number to describe thatsetActivities to Support Teaching Concepts and SkillsMystery Bags Part 1Counting fabricMore than less than gameTug of WarComposition and Decomposition of number to 5Read and Write numerals to 100(begin working toward this end of the yeargoalStar chart using only five stars to startPart/part whole boardBig Number Count (M.C.) XXPatterning AB, ABB patterns( #, shapes, letters, actions)Handy Dandy Pattern Holder (Math Camp )xxxxxxxxxxCalendar (days, week months)Calendar-(Over and Over Book)Fall: Emphasize pattern, days of the week, months of the year positional words. Whennumeral is tapped show that many fingers or one more than, one less thanReal graphs (two column)Geometry: positional wordsxxxxxxxxxx tell me about the graphLine up drama before, after, between, above, below, over , underStory boards over , under above below betweenIdentify a line of symmetry(Over and Over) Seasonal Symmetry XXEstimationMeasurement: Use non standard objects to measure thingsOngoingM.C. Example: Ancient body counts, self concept, I’ll give you a hand, Shoe gameBarbara Ann Novelli

Kindergarten Winter: December-FebruaryContinue work with sets to 20,Counting by tens, fives, rote count to 100Big Number Count XXXPlace Value: recognize teen number has one group of ten plus some onesBegin emphasizing composition of set to tenUse number line to connect count to numeralStar chart to ten now start emphasizing how many to complete the star chart (addition) Howmany were there? Taken off (subtraction)Intersperse real and nick name idea once and a whilePart , part whole, story board and cover up Over and Over Book, continue start chart workPatterning continue increasingDifficulty of letter patterns if ready and adding some numbers, start to lookat the patterns in numbers specifically the teensHandy Dandy Pattern HolderCalendarGeometry: use words to describe and compare attributes of two and threedimensional shapes (real world objects)Sort geometric 2 and 3 D shapes to one attributeA Solid Exploration: M.C. P.Tessellating An Area Over and Over p. 120 emphasize covering without any gaps or spaces,and organizing their countStatistics and data analysis add three column graph and towering data idea toa bar graphxxxxxxxxCalendarEmphasize date, value and symbol on class calendar. Have them look for patterns on classcalendar both symbols and numerals, begin simple addition and subtractionEstimation xxxxMeasurement: Compare two or three objects to length (longer, shorter, equalto)Ancient Body Measures, Math Camp BuddyParts of wholes (fractions) halfcookingBarbara Ann Novelli

Kindergarten Grade Spring-March-MayContinue counting by tens, and fives using number lineCreation and recognition of sets to tenPart/part whole, whole part/portNumber dramasOver and Over Story boardPart part whole boardStar chart to ten addition and subtractionMeasurement: Compare two containers according to capacity (holds more, less,equal)Compare two objects according to weight/mass, heavier, lighterPatterns: Students begin to make their own patternsRice tub idea, canteen from comp out,MC Campout canteen, Measurement picnicIndividual Pattern Holder per studentBig Number Count XXXEstimation xxxxxStatistics and Data analysisGeometry sort geometric shapes to attributesContinue composition and decomposition of shapeStudents should help teacher to label, identify question and then interpret data from twoand three column graphsPattern blocks, tangramsBarbara Ann Novelli
