Kindergarten Math

About Kindergarten Pennsylvania math

Pennsylvania follows the Pennsylvania Core Standards, which organize kindergarten math into strands covering counting and cardinality, operations and algebraic thinking, number and operations in base ten, measurement and data, and geometry. Students learn to count to 100, compare groups of objects, add and subtract within 10, describe measurable attributes, and identify two- and three-dimensional shapes. StudyPug provides video lessons and practice problems matched to every Pennsylvania Core Standards topic your child covers this year.

  • Strands: counting and cardinality, operations and algebraic thinking, number and operations in base ten, measurement and data, and geometry
  • Video lessons taught step by step for every kindergarten topic
  • Practice problems and worked examples after each lesson
  • Fully aligned to the Pennsylvania Core Standards for Kindergarten Math

PA 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?' for groups 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 using objects, fingers, drawings, and equations; solve word problems; decompose numbers up to 10 in multiple ways; 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 foundations.
  • 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 two- and three-dimensional shapes, identify their positions, analyze similarities and differences, and build or draw shapes from components.

How StudyPug Helps PA Kindergarten Math Students

When your child meets a tricky concept - whether it is composing shapes or understanding that counting connects to how many objects are in a group - StudyPug provides a short video lesson followed by practice problems so they can work through it at their own pace. Our kindergarten math help covers every Pennsylvania Core Standards topic, making it easy to pick up exactly where your child needs support.

If you want to see how well your child is keeping up with the curriculum, the kindergarten math practice test gives a quick read on which strands are solid and which ones need a bit more work. As your child grows, you can also look ahead to the PA Grade 1 math curriculum to see what comes next.

Aligned to PA Kindergarten Math Curriculum

Every lesson on StudyPug is mapped to the Pennsylvania Core Standards for Kindergarten Math, so the counting strategies, addition and subtraction methods, shape vocabulary, and measurement concepts your child practices here are exactly the ones their Pennsylvania teacher is covering in the classroom this year.
