Pre-K Counting and Cardinality Standards Aligned Resources

Count to 10

Recite numbers in order 1-20 (rote counting).

Practice makes perfect! For this standard, eSpark Learning provides exciting, go-as-you-learn activities and assignments that help students with repetition, reciting, and sequence.

Numbers Before and After

In the sequence of 1-10, understand that numbers come "before" or "after" one another.

Now that Pre-K students can recite numbers in order, eSpark’s resources will help introduce the idea of before and after. Which number comes after 8? Which number comes before 4? Through hands-on learning assignments, students will have a more robust understanding of order and sequence.

Match Numbers to Groups

Represent a number of objects with a written numeral 0-10 (with 0 representing a count of no objects).

In this standard, students will be introduced to the relationship between numbers and objects. Through eSpark’s curriculum, teachers can generate excitement with interactive activities that help students match numbers to different groups and objects.

Count Objects

Demonstrate 1:1 correspondence by counting sets of up to 10 objects, regardless of configuration (i.e., line, stack, array, scattered).

To build on their knowledge of objects and numbers, eSpark Learning implements visually engaging games and activities to help students better count objects — no matter how they appear in front of them.

Count How Many

Count 0-10 objects.

Introducing brand-new concepts to such young minds requires consistency, practice, and repetition. eSpark’s resources help make this part of the learning process a lot more fun and engaging for Pre-K students with visual aids, videos, and activities that help them master the skill of counting objects.

More or Less?

Use comparative language such as more/less than, equal to, to compare and describe collections of objects.

As students begin to strengthen their knowledge of objects and numerals, eSpark helps introduce the concept of comparing them. Through games and hands-on interaction, students will start to understand language like ‘more or less than’ and ‘equal to’ when describing and comparing objects.

Match More Numbers

Understand the relationship between quantities and written numerals (1-10).

Finally, students will apply what they’ve learned in previous standards to perfect their knowledge of written numerals and quantities. Once again, eSpark Learning supports teachers as they try to reinforce previously taught lessons with different activities that will help students apply the same knowledge in new and exciting ways.
