North Adams Public Schools Math Expressions Kindergarten Unit 1 Overview Understanding Numbers 1-10 (26 days) In this unit, children study the numbers from 1 to 10 and learn about simple shapes. They count to tell how many and order numbers. They learn to write the numbers 1 to 5 and to draw the corresponding number of objects. Children explore simple twodimensional shapes including circles, squares, and rectangles. Anno’s Counting Book is used throughout the unit to give students practice counting sets and telling stories based on the pictures in the book. The first five minutes of every lesson begin with studentled Quick Practice routines. Children develop perceptual subitzing skills as the begin to see groups of objects or drawings as one collection, for instance seeing a cluster of five dots on a die, they can say it is five right away, without hesitation. This leads to the next skill, conceptual subitizing, where students recognize smaller groups making up a larger amount. Two red dots and three blue dots can be described as three and two or five altogether. Math drawings and Math Talk are important parts of every lesson. Math Vocabulary Be sure to try the vocabulary activities included in the Teacher Resource section of the Teacher Edition (pp. T10-T11). Above Circles In front of Same Alike Compare More Side Arrangement Corner Next to Square Behind Different Numbers Visualize Below Fewer Order Beside Group Rectangle Big Idea 1: Counting and Cardinality 1-5 K.CC.4 Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality. a. When counting objects, say the number names in the standard order, pairing each object with one and only one number name and each number name with one and only one object. b. Understand that the last number name said tells the number of objects counted. The number of objects is the same regardless of their arrangement or the order in which they were counted.

Idea for Chart: Draw examples of various size circles. Make them into different faces or animal faces for students to use as examples. Use Counting Mats using square tiles to compare quantities from 1-5. Key Academic Vocabulary: more, less Idea for Chart: Make two sentence frames, one that says, “____ is more than ____.” And “____ is less than ____.” Make sticky notes for numbers 1 to 5 that can be put in the blanks to make true statements. Students can have a workmat version that says the same thing. Then students take turns making true statements while others build the comparison.

North Adams Public Schools Math Expressions Kindergarten Unit 1 Overview Understanding Numbers 1-10 (26 days) Big Idea 4: Practice Numbers 1 Through 10 K.CC.1 Count to 100 by ones and by tens. K.CC.3 Write numbers from 0 to 20. Represent a number of objects with a written numeral 0–20 (with 0 representing a count of no objects). K.CC.4 Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality. a. When counting objects, say the number names in the standard order, pairing each object with one and only one number name and each number name with one and only one object. b.

K.CC.5 Count to answer “how many?” questions about as many as 20 things arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scattered configuration; given a number from 1–20, count out that many objects. K.CC.6 Identify whether the number of objects in one group is greater than, less than, or equal to the number of objects in another group, e.g., by using matching and counting strategies.6 K.G.1 Describe objects in the environment using names of shapes, and describe the relative positions of these objects using terms such as above, below, beside, in front of, behind, and next to. K.G.2 Correctly name shapes regardless of their orientations or overall size. K.G.3 Identify shapes as two-dimensional (lying in a plane, “flat”) or three-dimensional (“solid”). K.G.4 Analyze and compare two- and three-dimensional shapes, in different sizes and orientations, using informal language to describe their similarities, differences, parts (e.g., number of sides and vertices/“corners”) and other attributes (e.g., having sides of equal length).

Do students all have one-to-one correspondence when they count? Practice connecting the dots on the board first to model drawing a straight line. Think aloud the process for aiming toward the next number before beginning the line. TE p. 96 Art Connection would be a fun extension to this lesson.
