Kindergarten Math Concepts

A unique blend of age-appropriate tracing and writing activities are combined with puzzles to make learning fun while helping kindergarteners build early math skills and develop lifelong learning confidence. Identifying numbers, skip counting, and understanding basic addition and subtraction are important steps toward math readiness, and Highlights (TM) infuses Fun with a Purpose® into these essential learning activities. With vibrant art and engaging prompts, Math Concepts exposes kindergarteners to math through numbers practice and the fun of puzzles and other activities.

Horizons Math Kindergarten builds the foundation for the method of study that is used all the way through the Horizons Math program. Every concept follows a deliberate pattern of introduction and gradual development. Each lesson begins with a new concept or an expansion of a previously covered concept. This introduction starts a cycle of repetition and review that students will experience as they work through the lessons. Horizons Math Kindergarten lays a foundation for order and exactness. The daily practice in the student books teaches the recognition and printing of the numerals 0 to 100. Simple addition and subtraction from 0 to 10 are taught. the addition-subtraction concept is extended through 99 with the aid of counters and the number line. Counting through 100 is presented by 1's, 10's, 5's, 2's, 3's, and 4's. Principles of place value, measurement, calendar use, telling time, graphing, comparisons, and money concepts are also introduced.

A colorful, engaging, easy-to-use workbook that reinforces the lessons in the Instructor Guide. Quick and easy workbook pages will help children review and practice what they’ve learned. They’ll also develop children’s fine-motor skills and help them get used to pencil-and-paper work, which will prepare them for greater independence in first grade. This simple, beautiful, age-appropriate workbook is colorfully illustrated by Itamar Katz. This Student Workbook accompanies Kindergarten Math With Confidence: Instructor Guide.

Through an exciting multimedia format, Teaching Preschool and Kindergarten Math takes you into an early childhood classroom for a seeing is believing look at how to create a focused, successful mathematics program while simultaneously deepening your knowledge of the mathematical ideas that need to be developed at an early age. You’ll find: * 26 video segments filmed in an actual classroom; * more than 150 lessons and investigations; * dozens of ideas for encouraging and supporting math talk with young children; * numerous formative assessment recommendations including videos of one-on-one interviews; * research-based strategies and insights to student misconceptions; * reproducibles (also available in a downloadable, printable format at www.mathsolutions.com/teachingpreschoolreproducibles), and more. The demands of the Common Core State Standards require students to have a stronger grounding in math concepts early on. In addition, research indicates that mastery of math concepts in early childhood is the most powerful predictor of later learning. These factors and more make Teaching Preschool and Kindergarten Math an essential go-to resource for the teaching and learning of early childhood mathematics.

Maths games keep children engaged while providing the enormous amounts of practice they need to learn new concepts and maths facts. Designed for use in the classroom and at home, this book includes access to downloadable More4U materials such as ten-frame cards, game boards, and recording sheets.
