Kindergarten math units and assessments aligned with the Investigations in Number, Data, and Space curriculum covering counting collections and sorting attributes.

A comprehensive 45-minute structured small group lesson designed for special education students to master the make-a-ten addition strategy. Students use hands-on double ten frames and counter manipulation to decompose single-digit numbers, fill a complete ten-frame, and bridge from the original addition equation to a friendly 10-plus fact.

A large-print, print-ready special education math worksheet for counting 3D wooden geoblock structures from 1 to 10 with write-in boxes and number choice options.

A 3-part structured math sequence for special education students progressing through concrete, representational, and abstract comparisons of quantities and numbers. Students count visual sets, master more and fewer concepts, and compare numbers using relational symbols.

Kindergarten investigations lessons on classifying objects by attributes. Students identify shared attributes among mixed blocks and sort collections by size and color.

A student-facing exit ticket worksheet designed for special education learners. Features 3 scaffolded problems with visual double ten-frames, explicit 2nd addend number-bond decomposition prompts, bite-size step cues, and dedicated handwriting lines for both the 10+ friendly number sentence and original addition sentence.

A foundational Kindergarten mathematics sequence developing operational sense by connecting real-world actions, operational symbols (+, -, =), and full number sentences. Students progress from identifying plus and minus signs to writing and solving complete addition and subtraction equations.

Kindergarten math checkpoints focused on the Counting Jar routine from Investigations. Students count collections of objects, record counts using representations and numerals, and create equivalent sets with matching quantities.

A reusable double ten-frame student math mat featuring color-coded frames, bite-size visual step cues, an explicit 2nd addend decomposition number-bond space with verbal math-talk cues, and dedicated lines for writing both the original number sentence and the 10+ number sentence. Includes printable equation task strips with decomposition prompts.

A five-day comprehensive foundational learning sequence spanning spatial reasoning mathematics and early literacy, designed for daily progression with embedded second-grade inclusive accommodations.

A hands-on early math lesson where Pre-K and Kindergarten learners explore nature, sort autumn leaves by color, create alternating AB patterns, and practice one-to-one correspondence for numbers 1 through 5 through multisensory play.

A structured 45-minute explicit lesson plan for special education small groups focusing on the make-a-ten addition strategy. Features explicit teacher scripts and student talk protocols for decomposing the second addend, multi-sensory concrete-representational-abstract routines, and targeted misconception corrections.
