Common core kindergarten math1/19/2024 They understand that 12 is the same as 10 and 2 more. In kindergarten, kids learn that numbers between 11 and 19 are made up of 10 plus some ones. Also, some kindergartners will understand the equations for addition and subtraction, such as 6 + 3 = 9, but it’s not essential this year. If there are 7 toy cars in a pile on the floor and one is removed, how many are left in the pile? If Juan has 4 cookies and Michele has 2 cookies, how many cookies do they have together? It gets a bit more difficult when they’re asked how many more cookies would they need for a total of 9, but that’s okay, because that’s pretty advanced. Kindergartners learn to add and subtract within 10, but not with a pencil and paper. They’ll answer questions like, “what’s after 73?” and “what’s the number before 15?” They’ll understand that the number 3 is bigger than the number 2 and that 49 is smaller than 50, which comes after it. They’ll be able to count to 100 - the long way saying one number at a time - and the short way skipping from 10 to 20 to 30 and so on. Ask them to point to the number that shows how old they are. Your child will learn to identify and write numbers from 0 to 20. Kids love to show you what they’ve learned, and there’s plenty to be proud of in kindergarten.
