Children engage in play to develop their mathematical thinking and problem solving. a - Begin to make groups and match objects. |
Reading and Writing Oral Expression and Listening 1 - Conceptual understanding conveyed through vocabulary words can occur using a variety of modalities a - Identify and sort common objects, events, pictures, words, colors, shapes, and textures into various classifications Math Shape, Dimension and Geometric Relationships 2 - Measurement is used to compare objects c - Sort coins by physical attributes such as color or size (PFL) |
Cognitive 13 - Uses classification skills - 4 - Places objects in two or more groups based on differences in a single characteristic, e.g., color, size, or shape Cognitive 13 - Uses classification skills - 6 - Groups objects by one characteristic; then regroups them using a different characteristic and indicates the reason |
Mathematics and Science Y - Sorting objects 2 - Child sorts a collection into smaller groups of similar objects. Mathematics and Science Y - Sorting objects 2 - Child sorts a collection into smaller groups of similar objects. |
Mathematics Knowledge & Skills Patterns: The recognition of patterns, sequencing, and critical thinking skills necessary to predict and classify objects in a pattern. Sorts, classifies, and serializes (puts in a pattern) objects using attributes, such as color, shape, or size.
