Unit 1
Counting and Cardinality to 10
Students build steady counting, match one number to one object, and tell how many are in a set to 10. Practice is visual, concrete, and short.

Unit 1
Students build steady counting, match one number to one object, and tell how many are in a set to 10. Practice is visual, concrete, and short.
First steps
Unit 2
Students build steady counting, one-to-one correspondence, and cardinality with objects and pictures. They connect spoken number words, numerals, and sets through short visual and interactive practice.
First steps
Unit 3
Students compare groups using more, fewer, and equal, then order sets from fewest to most. They use counting and visual matching to justify their choices.
First steps
Unit 4
Students break apart and put together numbers, first within 5 and then within 10. They also see teen numbers as one ten and some ones with concrete models.
First steps
Unit 5
Students model joining situations, connect pictures to addition sentences, and notice that changing the order of addends does not change the total. They use short equations with choices and visual supports.
First steps
Unit 6
Students model separating situations, choose whether a story is joining or separating, and represent stories with pictures and equations. They begin to solve simple stories within 10 using objects and drawings.
First steps
Unit 7
Students copy, extend, and describe repeating and growing patterns, then find missing terms. They talk about what repeats or grows and use that regularity to predict what comes next.
First steps
Unit 8
Students use positional words, identify and describe 2D and 3D shapes in abstract and real-world settings, and build shapes from parts. They learn with scenes, photos, and hands-on composition tasks.
First steps
Unit 9
Students compare objects by length, weight, and capacity, use nonstandard units, and connect time to daily routines and clocks. The unit also includes optional money as counting objects in play-store contexts within 10.
First steps
Unit 10
Students sort objects by attributes, place items in Venn diagrams, read simple picture and tally displays, and use basic chance words. They classify, count, and compare results from concrete collections.
First steps
Unit 11
Students explain choices with short spoken reasoning, classify objects, compare attributes, and identify regularity in patterns. The focus is on saying or selecting why something belongs, matches, or comes next.
First steps
Unit 12
Students solve joining, separating, comparing, and simple two-action stories within 10 using objects, drawings, and matching number sentences. Problems stay concrete and visual, with short audio-first prompts.
First steps
Unit 13
Students connect counting, shapes, patterns, and measurement ideas to real scenes from school, nature, toys, food, and sports. This unit strengthens transfer by revisiting familiar ideas in everyday situations.
First steps
Unit 14
Students deepen number sense through faster recognition, flexible composing within 10, and stronger teen-number reasoning with ten-and-ones models. This extension stays concrete while increasing the need for efficient strategies.
First steps
Unit 15
Students use pictures, known combinations, and related facts to solve within 10 with more independence. They compare strategies and choose efficient representations while staying grounded in concrete models.
First steps
Unit 16
Students bring together counting, operations, geometry, measurement, data, patterns, and reasoning in mixed review and richer applications. Tasks stay developmentally appropriate for Kindergarten while expecting stronger independence, flexible thinking, and transfer.
