Mathematics · Pre-K
Olly's dot cards help children see groups of up to five without counting one by one: dice-like patterns, fingers and scattered groups. Children learn to see small groups inside bigger ones (four is two and two) and to match each group to its numeral from 1 to 5.
Mathematics · Pre-K
Children count up to ten things in lines, circles and scattered groups without losing track, count out exactly the number Olly asks for from a bigger pile, and connect the numerals 1 to 10 to groups and to their order on a number path.
Mathematics · Pre-K
An empty nest has zero eggs. Children learn that zero means none, compare groups up to ten by pairing and by counting, and find one more and one fewer by moving along a number path from 0 to 10.
Mathematics · Pre-K
Bunnies hop together and birds fly away. Children act out and solve put-together and take-away stories with totals up to ten, and learn that every story has a first, a then and a now, ending with more or fewer than it started. No plus or minus signs yet: just objects, pictures and words.
Mathematics · Pre-K
Olly builds with shape tiles. Children describe triangles, squares, rectangles, circles and hexagons by their sides and corners, put shapes together to make new shapes (two triangles make a square), and compare shapes by size, sides and corners. A first look at solid shapes sorts the ones that roll from the ones that stack.
Mathematics · Pre-K
Patterns grow up: apple, apple, banana; sun, moon, star; cat, dog, dog. Children find the part that repeats in longer patterns, extend them by several pieces, and rebuild the same pattern with new pictures and body positions, spotting and fixing mistakes along the way.
Mathematics · Pre-K
Which tower is taller? Which jar holds more? Children compare lengths and heights by lining up ends, put three things in order from shortest to tallest, and compare how much containers hold by pouring from one to another, discovering that taller does not always mean holds more.
Mathematics · Pre-K
Olly's class wants to know which fruit is the favourite. Children sort collections into groups, count each group, show the counts as a picture graph or bar graph, and read the graph to find the most, the fewest and how many are in a group.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
Kindergartners make counting exact: one number for each object, the last number tells how many, and moving the objects does not change the count. Ten strips show that each next number is one more, and zero shows a count of none. Children show and read numbers from 0 to 10.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
Children count to 100 by ones and by tens using a hundred chart, count forward from any number instead of starting at 1, and count groups of up to 20 objects and build the matching numeral, including the tricky teen numbers. Handwriting practice happens on paper with a grown-up watching.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
Is 7 greater than 5? Children compare groups of up to ten by pairing and counting, using the words greater than, less than and equal to, then compare written numbers on a number path and put three numbers in order from least to greatest.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
Putting groups together becomes addition. Children show joining stories with objects, fingers and drawings, learn the plus and equal signs, solve add-to and put-together story problems within 10, and become quick and confident with sums within 5.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
When some go away, we subtract. Children show take-away stories with objects, drawings and equations using the minus sign, solve take-away problems within 10 by counting back on a number path, decide whether a story needs adding or subtracting, and grow confident with subtraction within 5.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
Seven can be 5 and 2, or 4 and 3, or 6 and 1. Children break numbers up to 10 into two parts in different ways, record them with equations like 7 = 4 + 3, find every way to split a small number in an organised list, and find the partner that makes 10 for any number from 1 to 9 using a ten strip.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
Every teen number is a full ten and some more ones. Children build teen numbers with ten strips and blocks, write equations like 14 = 10 + 4, see why the 1 in a teen numeral stands for ten ones, and use 'ten and some more' to compare and order teen numbers.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
A pumpkin can be tall, heavy and wide all at once. Children learn the things we can measure about an object (length, height, weight, how much it holds), compare two objects directly by lining up ends, and compare weights with their hands and a balance scale, discovering that bigger is not always heavier.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
Children classify objects into given categories (animals with legs or without, things that travel on land, water or air), count how many are in each category, record the counts in a table and a bar graph, and put the categories in order from most to fewest to answer questions.
Mathematics · Kindergarten
Children name flat shapes and solid shapes in any size or position, tell flat from solid, describe shapes by their sides, corners (vertices) and faces, use position words to say where things are, and put small shapes together to build bigger ones.
