Common Core for Kindergarten



Videos, examples, lessons, and songs to help Kindergarten kids learn how to compose and decompose numbers from 11 to 19 into ten ones and some further ones, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each composition or decomposition by a drawing or equation (such as 18 = 10 + 8); understand that these numbers are composed of ten ones and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.

Common Core Standards: K.NBT.1

Suggested Learning Target

  • I can count to 20.
  • I can use numbers 1-9 to make 10 using objects or drawings (e.g., ten frame, base ten blocks)
  • I can compose (put together) numbers 11-19 using a ten and some ones, and show my work with a drawing or equation.
  • I can decompose (break apart) numbers 11-19 into a ten and some ones, and show my work with a drawing or an equation.
  • I can use concrete materials (e.g., Unifix cubes, snap cubes, Digi-blocks, base ten blocks, etc.) to represent the combination of one ten and ones for each number
  • I can record the representations of 11 through 19 in pictures, numbers, and/or equations

Place Value (10 - 19)

Numbers in Base Ten
Count by dividing into groups of tens and ones.



Numbers in Base Ten (Kindergarten)
We will learn about numbers between 11 and 19. We will see how 10 ones make a group of ten and then we count to see what number we can put in the ones place and write our equation. Numbers 11-19
We will learn how to use ten frame, images and equations to build numbers between 11 and 19. Numbers 11-19 as a Group of 10 and Ones (K.NBT.1) For Teachers

The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) videos are designed to support states, schools, and teachers in the implementation of the CCSS. Each video is an audiovisual resource that focuses on one or more specific standards and usually includes examples/illustrations geared to enhancing understanding. The intent of each content-focused video is to clarify the meaning of the individual standard rather than to be a guide on how to teach each standard although the examples can be adapted for instructional use.
