Kindergarten math students will be introduced to sets, addition, and subtraction. They will use numbers and pictures to count objects in a set. They will compare two sets and tell which is equal to, more than, or less than the other.

During their kindergarten math studies the children will use language to describe the relative position of numbers in a sequence on a number line up to 10 or more. They will be expected to count backwards from ten to one and to understand the relationship of smaller numbers to larger ones.

They will use sets of 10 or more, and will be comparing sets, identifying equivalent sets to show simple addition, for example: a set of two and a set of four are equal to a set of six. Kindergarten math will teach them to create number stories using objects so they'll learn strategies for solving number problems. This will develop an awareness of how addition and subtraction are used in everyday activities. The children will be able to use addition and subtraction concepts to move forward or backwards along a number line.

They will compare objects, sort and order them by length and weight, and learn to use nonstandard items to measure things, for example a pencil can be used to measure the width of a door - it is four pencils wide. They will also learn about various tools for measuring length, weight, or capacity.

The children will be taught to identify the time of day or night as morning, afternoon, or evening. They will learn to understand yesterday, today, and tomorrow. They will compare activities and learn which ones take more or less time. Kindergarten math will introduce children to calendars and the concepts of days, weeks, months, and days of the week.
