Counting and cardinality are the foundation: students count to 100, compare quantities, and understand the teen numbers through place value. Shapes are identified and composed; measurable attributes like length and weight are compared directly. Early addition and subtraction within 10 use objects and drawings.

K.1Count forward orally from 0 to 100 by ones and by tens. Count backward orally from 10 to 0 by ones.K.10Decompose numbers less than or equal to 10 into pairs of smaller numbers in more than one way, by using concrete objects or drawings, and record each decomposition by a drawing or equation.K.11For any number from 0 to 10, find the number that makes 10 when added to the given number, by using concrete objects or drawings, and record the answer with a drawing or equation.K.12Fluently add and subtract within 5.K.13Duplicate and extend simple patterns using concrete objects.K.14Compose and decompose numbers from 11 to 19 by using concrete objects or drawings to demonstrate understanding that these numbers are composed of ten ones and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.K.15Classify objects into given categories of 10 or fewer; count the number of objects in each category and sort the categories by count.K.16Identify and describe measurable attributes (length, weight, height) of a single object using vocabulary such as long/short, heavy/light, or tall/short.K.17Directly compare two objects with a measurable attribute in common to see which object has “more of” or “less of” the attribute and describe the difference.K.18Describe 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.19Correctly name shapes regardless of their orientations or overall sizes.K.2Count to 100 by ones beginning with any given number between 0 and 99.K.20Identify shapes as two-dimensional (lying in a plane, “flat”) or three-dimensional (“solid”).K.21Analyze and compare two- and three-dimensional shapes, in different sizes and orientations, using informal language to describe their similarities, differences, parts (number of sides and vertices or “corners”), and other attributes.K.22Model shapes in the world by building them from sticks, clay balls, or other components and by drawing them.K.23Use simple shapes to compose larger shapes.K.3Write numerals from 0 to 20.K.4Connect counting to cardinality using a variety of concrete objects.K.5Count to answer “how many?” questions.K.6Orally identify whether the number of objects in one group is greater/more than, less/fewer than, or equal/the same as the number of objects in another group, in groups containing up to 10 objects, by using matching, counting, or other strategies.K.7Compare two numbers between 0 and 10 presented as written numerals (without using inequality symbols).K.8Represent addition and subtraction up to 10 with concrete objects, fingers, pennies, mental images, drawings, claps or other sounds, acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.K.9Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, by using concrete objects or drawings to represent the problem.K.DAData AnalysisK.FCFoundations of CountingK.GGeometryK.MMeasurementK.OATOperations and Algebraic ThinkingK.ONOperations with Numbers
