Teaching math in Kindergarten is no easy feat. You are beginning the foundation of all other math skills yet to come. In this episode, I explain essential math instruction for kindergarten teachers, focusing on building a solid "number sense" foundation. We explore four key areas: subitizing, number recognition and writing, one-to-one correspondence, and cardinality. I discuss effective teaching progressions, the importance of hands-on learning, and strategies for supporting struggling learners. Future episodes will cover additional topics like home support and math fluency, while emphasizing the significance of patience and fostering a love for math in our young students. So make sure to follow for more!
