Illinois Kindergarten Math Topics
- Counting and Cardinality: Count to 100 by ones and tens, count forward from a given number, write numerals 0-20, connect counting to cardinality, and answer how-many questions for groups of up to 20 objects.
- Comparing Numbers: Identify whether a group of objects is greater than, less than, or equal to another group, and compare two written numerals between 1 and 10.
- Operations and Algebraic Thinking: Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, drawings, and equations; solve word problems within 10; decompose numbers into pairs; find the number that makes 10; and fluently add and subtract within 5.
- Number and Operations in Base Ten: Compose and decompose numbers from 11 to 19 into ten ones and some further ones.
- Measurement and Data: Describe measurable attributes such as length and weight, directly compare two objects using a shared attribute, and classify and sort objects into categories by count.
- Geometry: Name and describe shapes in the environment, identify flat and solid shapes, analyze and compare two- and three-dimensional shapes, and compose simple shapes to form larger ones.
