Curriculum for Kindergarten

From number recognition to counting and operations, students build the number sense and conceptual understanding they'll need for grade 1.

MODULE 1 Numbers to 10

Topic A: Identifying Same, Different, and Alike

Students consider the size, shape, and color of objects to determine whether they are the same, different, or alike. Additionally, they are introduced to dissimilar objects that "match" because of a related function, such as a sock and a shoe.
