DC Kindergarten Math Curriculum
Give your kindergartner a strong start with lessons and practice that match exactly what DC schools teach, from counting and number sense to shapes and early addition.
About Kindergarten District of Columbia math
The District of Columbia follows District of Columbia academic standards for math, organized around number sense, operations, measurement, geometry, and data. In kindergarten, students count to 100, compare and compose numbers, solve addition and subtraction problems within 10, describe measurable attributes of objects, and identify and build two- and three-dimensional shapes. StudyPug provides video lessons, practice problems, and step-by-step explanations for every strand so your child gets support that matches the classroom.
- Strands covered: counting and cardinality, operations in base ten, operations and algebraic thinking, measurement and data, and geometry
- Video lessons taught by certified teachers for every kindergarten math topic
- Practice problems and worked examples aligned to DC academic standards
- Works on any device so your child can learn at home or on the go
Curriculum topics by strand
Find lessons and practice for every kindergarten math strand, aligned to District of Columbia academic standards.
DC Kindergarten Math Topics
- Counting and Cardinality: Counting to 100 by ones and tens, counting forward from a given number, writing numerals 0-20, connecting counting to cardinality, and answering how-many questions for up to 20 objects.
- Number Comparison: Identifying whether one group is greater than, less than, or equal to another, and comparing two written numerals between 1 and 10.
- Operations and Algebraic Thinking: Representing addition and subtraction in multiple ways, solving word problems within 10, decomposing numbers into pairs, finding the number that makes 10, and adding and subtracting fluently within 5.
- Number and Operations in Base Ten: Composing and decomposing numbers 11-19 into ten ones and further ones.
- Measurement and Data: Describing measurable attributes such as length and weight, directly comparing two objects, classifying objects into categories, and sorting categories by count.
- Geometry: Naming and describing shapes in the environment, identifying flat and solid shapes, comparing two- and three-dimensional shapes, building shapes from components, and composing simple shapes into larger ones.
How StudyPug Helps DC Kindergarten Math Students
When a kindergartner gets stuck on counting or does not understand why 7 is greater than 4, a parent does not always have time to re-teach the concept from scratch. StudyPug gives your child short, clear video lessons and immediate practice so they can work through the confusion on their own and build real confidence. Our kindergarten math help covers every DC strand, from cardinality and early operations to geometry.
Progress does not stop at one topic either. Once your child is ready to move forward, you can explore what comes next with the DC grade 1 math curriculum so there are no gaps heading into first grade.
Aligned to DC Kindergarten Math Curriculum
Every lesson and practice set on StudyPug is built around the District of Columbia academic standards for kindergarten math. The content follows the same strand structure and learning expectations that DC schools use, so what your child practices here directly supports what they are doing in class. You can also use our kindergarten math practice test to check how well your child has grasped the key skills before moving on.
