Curriculum

Children will be able to solve addition and subtraction word problems and perform addition and subtraction within 10 by using objects, drawings, or other visual aids to represent the problem.

Children will learn to represent addition and subtraction using various methods including objects, fingers, mental images, drawings, sounds (such as claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, mathematical expressions, and equations.

Children will develop the ability to use and understand verbal ordinal terms from first to twentieth.

Children will be able to sort single-digit numbers into even and odd categories. Additionally, they will be able to identify even and odd numbers within two-digit numbers.

Ability to use before, after, or between to order numbers to 100 (with or without the use of a number line)

Children will learn to count backwards from 100.

Children will learn to mentally calculate 10 more or 10 less than a given two-digit number without counting explicitly. They will also be able to explain the reasoning behind their mental calculations.

Children will learn to compare two two-digit numbers by examining the values of the tens and ones digits and will record the results of these comparisons using the symbols >, =, and <.

Children will be able to relate counting to addition, such as counting by increments of 2, 5 or 10 to understand and apply basic addition concepts.

Children will be able to count to determine the number of objects and understand the relationship between numbers and quantities by connecting counting to cardinality.
