NM Kindergarten Math Curriculum
Give your child a strong start in math with lessons and practice that follow exactly what New Mexico Kindergarten classrooms teach, from counting and cardinality to early geometry.
About Kindergarten New Mexico math
New Mexico follows the New Mexico Standards for Kindergarten math, covering five core areas: counting and cardinality, operations and algebraic thinking, number and operations in base ten, measurement and data, and geometry. Students count to 100, compare groups, add and subtract within 10, explore measurable attributes, and identify two- and three-dimensional shapes. StudyPug provides step-by-step lessons and practice problems matched to every one of these strands.
- Strands: counting and cardinality, operations and algebraic thinking, number and operations in base ten, measurement and data, and geometry
- Step-by-step lessons with worked examples for every Kindergarten topic
- Practice problems and instant feedback aligned to New Mexico Standards
- Progress tracking so parents can see exactly where their child stands
Curriculum topics by strand
Lessons and practice for every strand, aligned to the New Mexico Standards for Kindergarten math.
NM 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 up to 20 objects.
- Comparing Numbers: Identify whether a group 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 in multiple ways, 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, building the foundation of place value.
- Measurement and Data: Describe and 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, and compose simple shapes to form larger ones.
How StudyPug Helps NM Kindergarten Math Students
When your child gets stuck on counting or early addition, StudyPug's short video lessons walk through each idea one step at a time with clear worked examples. Our kindergarten math help is organized by the same strands New Mexico teachers use in the classroom, so finding the right lesson takes seconds rather than minutes.
After each lesson, targeted practice problems let your child apply what they just learned and build the confidence they need before the next school day. You can also use our kindergarten math practice test to check where your child is ready and where a little extra review will help.
