Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 33 (Grade K Math): Teen Numbers—Show & Tell

Represent teen numbers (11–19) as ten and some ones using multiple models—ten-frames, cubes, drawings—and justify how each model matches with a 10 + n equation.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 32 (Grade K Math): Make Ten & Decompose

Blend “make ten” and decomposing numbers ≤10 using ten-frames, number bonds, and equations; find complements to 10, show part–whole pairs, and explain tool choice to build fluency.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 31 (Grade K Math): Add/Sub within 10—Choice of Tools

Choose counters, drawings, or equations to solve addition and subtraction within 10, then explain why the tool fits and how the model and equation match the story.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 30 (Grade K Math): Compare & Justify (0–20)

Compare sets and numerals within 0–20 using matching, counting, and ten-frames to decide greater, less, or equal, and justify each comparison with clear math talk.

Paid-members only

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 29 (Grade K Math): Read/Write 0–20 & Match Sets

Read and write numerals 0–20, then match or create sets with one-to-one counting, saying the last number to tell “how many” and checking with ten-frames or number lines.

Paid-members only

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 28 (Grade K Math): Count to 100

Count to 100 by ones and tens, and count on from any number within 100 using charts, number lines, and counting collections to track one-more and ten-more patterns.

Unit Plan 27 (Grade K Math): Compose with Shapes

Compose larger shapes and pictures using triangles, rectangles, and squares; trace parts, check for no gaps or overlaps, and explore multiple ways to make the same whole.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 26 (Grade K Math): Model & Draw Shapes

Build and draw shapes from verbal attributes; identify sides, corners, and curves; and name shapes correctly in any size or orientation.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 25 (Grade K Math): Analyze & Compare Shapes

Compare 2D and 3D shapes by naming shared attributes (sides, corners, faces, edges, flat/curved surfaces), describing similarities and differences, and justifying shape sorts.

Unit Plan 24 (Grade K Math): Positions & Paths

Use positional words (above, below, next to, in front of, behind) to describe object locations and give/follow simple routes using mats, pictures, and classroom obstacle paths.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 23 (Grade K Math): Decompose & Record

Decompose numbers 6–10 in multiple ways using models (ten-frames, number bonds), then record matching equations and explain that “=” means the same total even when addends switch.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 22 (Grade K Math): Add/Sub within 10—Mixed Stories

Solve story problems within 10 by modeling with drawings or objects, then write equations with an unknown and explain how the model matches the situation.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 21 (Grade K Math): Fluency within 5

Build fluency within 5 through game-based addition and subtraction using five-frames, number bonds, and part–part–whole strategies to solve and explain facts efficiently.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 20 (Grade K Math): Teen Numbers—Represent & Compare

Represent teen numbers (11–19) as 10 + ones with ten-frames or cubes, then compare teens by the ones to decide more, fewer, or same using clear place-value language.

Paid-members only

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 19 (Grade K Math): Teen Numbers—Make a Ten

Compose and decompose teen numbers (11–19) as 10 + n using bundles, ten-frames, drawings, and equations to show one ten and some ones.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 17 (Grade K Math): Sort & Count

Sort objects by one attribute (color, shape, size), then count and compare category totals using more, fewer, or same to build early data and classification skills.

Unit Plan 16 (Grade K Math): Make Ten

Use ten-frames to find the missing part that makes 10 (1–9), record pairs with equations, and build fluency with make-ten partners for strong number-sense foundations.

Kindergarten Math Units

Unit Plan 15 (Grade K Math): Decompose Numbers ≤10

Break numbers ≤10 into two parts in multiple ways using models, then record each decomposition with matching equations to show how different pairs make the same whole.
