The mathematics program takes an investigative approach, which helps students make the transition from the concrete to the abstract. Emphasis is placed on using mathematics process skills to solve practical problems in a variety of contexts throughout the year. The Kindergarten Mathematics Standards are . . .
Number and Operations
• Understand the relationship between quantities and whole numbers up to 31.
• Use objects and pictures to represent situations involving combining and separating.
Geometry and Measurement
• Recognize and sort basic two- and three-dimensional shapes; use them to model real-world objects.
• Compare and order objects according to location and measurable attributes.
Algebra
• Recognize, create, complete, and extend patterns.
Data Analysis and Probability
