    Kindergarten students are working on early math skills like counting, recognizing numbers 11-19, geometry, and solving word problems. They use strategies like counting dots on cards, using ten-frames and five-frames, and bead racks to learn quantities and subitizing. Students are also introduced to addition and subtraction equations and counting on strategies. The goal is for students to recognize numbers and quantities regardless of presentation.
