MN Kindergarten Math Curriculum
Give your kindergartner a strong start with lessons and practice that match exactly what Minnesota schools teach, from counting and number sense to shapes and early addition.
About Kindergarten Minnesota math
Minnesota follows the Minnesota Academic Standards for Mathematics, organized around number sense, operations, measurement, and geometry. In Kindergarten, children build foundational skills: counting to 100, understanding cardinality, comparing numbers, solving addition and subtraction problems within 10, describing measurable attributes of objects, and identifying two- and three-dimensional shapes. StudyPug provides video lessons and guided practice for every one of these strands, aligned to Minnesota Academic Standards.
- Strands covered: counting and cardinality, operations in base ten, addition and subtraction, measurement and data, and geometry
- Video lessons taught by certified teachers for every Kindergarten math topic
- Practice problems with step-by-step solutions so your child can check their work
- Fully aligned to Minnesota Academic Standards for Kindergarten Mathematics

Minnesota 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 about groups of up to 20 objects.
- Number Comparison: Identify whether the number of objects in one group is greater than, less than, or equal to another, 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 up to 10 in more than one way; 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 to build place-value understanding.
- Measurement and Data: Describe and directly compare measurable attributes such as length and weight, classify objects into categories, and sort categories by count.
- Geometry: Name and describe shapes in the environment, identify two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes, analyze and compare shapes, build shapes from components, and compose simple shapes to form larger shapes.
How StudyPug Helps Minnesota Kindergarten Math Students
When a young learner gets stuck on counting, number comparisons, or early addition, StudyPug gives them a place to go back and watch the lesson again at their own pace. Parents can sit alongside their child and use the kindergarten math help resources to reinforce what the classroom has introduced, topic by topic.
Each concept builds on the last, so if your child needs extra work on a specific skill, you can jump straight to that lesson without sitting through unrelated material. A kindergarten math practice test is also available to help you see where your child stands before moving on.
Aligned to Minnesota Kindergarten Math Curriculum
Every lesson and practice problem on StudyPug for Kindergarten is mapped to the Minnesota Academic Standards for Mathematics, covering the same strands and skills that Minnesota teachers use in their classrooms. When your child is ready to move ahead, you can explore the mn grade 1 math curriculum to see what comes next.
