While the official Common Core doesn’t have standards for pre-kindergarten students, eSpark Learning understands this is a crucial time to introduce mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA). That’s why we have developed standards-aligned resources for each subject, helping pre-k teachers lay the foundation that will help students succeed in the years to come.
For Pre-K math, the standards-aligned teaching resources introduce the basic principles of counting, including:
Through eSpark’s activities and assignments, Pre-K students should aim to recite numbers in order, understand the relationship between written numbers and quantities, and count zero to 10 objects in any type of configuration.
In Pre-K ELA, eSpark’s resources lay the foundation for reading, language, and literature. More specifically, students will learn about:
Pre-K is the perfect opportunity to get students on the right learning track from the very beginning, setting them up for success as they enter Kindergarten. With these standards-aligned resources, they’ll have the familiarity, knowledge, and confidence to tackle the standards put in front of them the following year.
Through interactive games, videos, activities, and critical thinking assessments, eSpark Learning helps support Pre-K teachers as they introduce math and ELA to young minds. Developed from the Common Core standards, our curriculum drives a deeper understanding of each subject and concept. The goal? To help students lay a strong foundation of knowledge and skills that will successfully grow as they do.
Pre-K math includes seven standards, all of which ladder up to one domain: Counting and Cardinality. Because this is an introductory curriculum, students will learn brand-new concepts. As they make their way through the standards, students build their knowledge through repetition, practice, and consistency. By reciting numbers, counting objects, and bringing the two together, Pre-K students will have an impressive head start as they enter Kindergarten.
Explore eSpark’s Curriculum for Pre-K math to unlock teaching resources, activities, assignments — all aligned with the Common Core standards.
Pre-K ELA includes a total of 18 standards — divided into three domains. By the end of the year, Pre-K students should have a solid grasp of the alphabet, familiar words and letter sounds, listening to and understanding stories, describing places, and learning new words.
Dive into the entire Pre-K ELA curriculum to explore activities that align with each standard.
As stated above, the Pre-K standards-aligned resources include just one domain. Within it, eSpark will introduce activities, videos, and more to help them apply their brand-new knowledge. Here’s what teachers can expect Pre-K students to learn:
Pre-K ELA standards are divided into three domains: Reading Foundational Skills, Language, and Reading Literature. By the end of the year, students should recognize and name many letters of the alphabet, identify sounds and words, establish word meanings, and become engaged with storytelling. Here’s a closer look at what Pre-K students will learn:
