Apple Thematic Bundle | Science, Literacy, and Math for Little Learners

This Apple Thematic Bundle includes science, literacy, and math, so it aligns across CCSS, NGSS, and TEKS.

Common Core ELA (Kindergarten)

• RF.K.1: Demonstrate understanding of the organization and basic features of print

• RF.K.2: Demonstrate understanding of spoken words, syllables, and sounds (phonemic awareness)

• RF.K.3: Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words

• RF.K.4: Read emergent-reader texts with purpose and understanding

• L.K.5.A: Sort common objects into categories (e.g., shapes, colors, seasons)

• SL.K.1: Participate in collaborative conversations about kindergarten topics and texts

Common Core Math (Kindergarten)

• K.CC.A.1: Count to 100 by ones and tens

• K.CC.B.4: Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities

• K.CC.C.6: Compare groups using greater than, less than, or equal to

• K.OA.A.1: Represent addition and subtraction with objects, drawings, or equations

• K.OA.A.2: Solve addition and subtraction problems within 10

• K.G.A.2: Correctly name two-dimensional shapes regardless of orientation

NGSS (Science Connections)

• K-LS1-1: Use observations to describe patterns of what plants and animals need to survive

• K-ESS3-1: Use a model to represent the relationship between the needs of different plants or animals and the places they live

• K-ESS2-1: Use and share observations of local weather conditions (apple seasons)
