Welcome toSingapore Math

Parent Workshop!

I didn’t learn math this way?! The ins and outs of

Kindergarten Singapore math.

Ms.Bergan’s Class 2013-2014

Why before howThis program…• Develops students into capable problem

solvers• Builds number sense through part-whole

thinking• Builds an understanding of place value • Teaches how to break numbers into

‘friendly’ numbers

• Very hands-on!

Part A – First part of school year • Count and write numbers up to 10• Compare two or more sets to 10• Count and identify 1 more/1 less• # order• Understand larger # equals a set of more • Describe and compare objects by length and weight

(standard & non standard measurement)• Compare and measure capacity (standard & non

standard measurement)• Recognizes & names 2D & 3D shapes• Extend & describe patterns• Identify and sort by attributes• Identify objects that do not belong• Collect & analyze data

Second part of

school year • Place value to represent # to 30• Compare two sets of objects• Count objects, read and write # to 30• 1 more/1 less to 30• # order ( 7 < 10)• Use place value # to 100• Number bonds (Part – Whole)• Addition/Subtraction within 10• Reasonable estimates• Skip counting by 2s, 5,s, 10s to 100• Recognize & know value of coins• Count coin combos• Understand sequence of events• Tell time to hour• Sort and classify objects• Solve problems (numeric equations)• Use boxes or symbols to stand for
