PreK children are provided with many opportunities to explore and use mathematical concepts. The children develop mathematical thinking through our every day routines and hands-on experiences.

Some examples are:

• calendar
• weather
• attendance
• snack time
• manipulatives (i.e. unifix cubes, colored tiles/counters, pattern blocks)
• small group and large group mathematical investigations

The math concepts and skills emphasized in our PreK classrooms are:

• Number exploration and identification
• Counting
• Sorting
• Shape exploration and identification
• Graphing
• Measuring
• Classifying
• Comparing
• One-to-one correspondence
• Patterning
