Counting and Cardinality
• Know number names and the counting sequence.
• Count to tell the number of objects.
• Compare numbers.

Operations and Algebraic Thinking
• Understand addition as putting together and adding to, and understand subtraction as taking apart and taking from.

Measurement and Data
• Describe and compare measurable attributes.
• Classify objects and count the number of objects in each category.
• Work with money.

Geometry
• Identify and describe shapes (squares, circles, triangles, rectangles).
• Analyze, compare, create, and compose shapes.

Lesson Plans for Pre-K

Pre-K Content Standards

• Counting and Cardinality PK.CC
  Know number names and the counting sequence.
  • MA.1. Listen to and say the names of numbers in meaningful contexts.
  • MA.2. Recognize and name written numerals 0-10.
  Count to tell the number of objects.
  • MA.3. Understand the relationships between numerals and quantities up to ten.
  Compare numbers.
  • MA.4. Count many kinds of concrete objects and actions up to ten, using one-to-one correspondence, and accurately count as many as seven things in a scattered configuration.
  • MA.5. Use comparative language, such as more/less than, equal to, to compare and describe collections of objects.

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

• Measurement and Data PK.MD
  Describe and compare measurable attributes.
  • MA.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).
  • MA.2. Compare the attributes of length and weight for two objects, including longer/shorter, same length; heavier/lighter, same weight; holds more/less, holds the same amount.
  Classify objects and count the number of objects in each category.
  • MA.3. Sort, categorize, and classify objects by more than one attribute.
  Work with money.
  • MA.4. Recognize that certain objects are coins and that dollars and coins represent money.

• Geometry PK.G
  Identify and describe shapes (squares, circles, triangles, rectangles).
  • MA.1. Identify relative positions of objects in space, and use appropriate language (e.g., beside, inside, next to, close to, above, below, apart).
  • MA.2. Identify various two-dimensional shapes using appropriate language.
  Analyze, compare, create, and compose shapes.
  • MA.3. Create and represent three-dimensional shapes (ball/sphere, square box/cube, tube/cylinder) using various manipulative materials (such as popsicle sticks, blocks, pipe cleaners, pattern blocks).
