Common Core

L.K.1a- print many upper- and lowercase letters
RF.K.1d- recognize and name all upper- and lowercase letters of the alphabet
RF.K.2- demonstrate understanding of spoken words, syllables, and sounds (phonemes)
RF.K.2b- count, pronounce, blend, and segment syllables in spoken words
RF.K.3c- read common high-frequency words by sight (e.g., the, of, to, you, she, my, is, are, do, does)
RL.K.3- with prompting and support, identify characters, settings, and major events in a story
W.K.3- use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to narrate a single event or several loosely linked events, tell about the events in the order in which they occurred, and provide a reaction to what happened
K.CC.A.3- write numbers from 0 to 20. Represent a number of objects with a written numeral 0-20 (with 0 representing a count of no objects)
K.CC.B.4- understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality
K.CC.B.4b- understand that the last number name said tells the number of objects counted. The number of objects is the same regardless of their arrangement or the order in which they were counted
K.CC.B.5- count to answer “how many?” questions about as many as 20 things arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scattered configuration; given a number from 1-20, count out that many objects
K.G.A.1- describe objects in the environment using names of shapes, and describe the relative positions of these objects using terms such as above, below, beside, in front of, behind, and next to

Next Generation Science Standards

K-2-ETS1-2- develop a simple sketch, drawing, or physical model to illustrate how the shape of an object helps it function as needed to solve a given problem
K-PS2-1- plan and conduct an investigation to compare the effects of different strengths or different directions of pushes and pulls on the motion of an object. Examples of pushes or pulls could include a string attached to an object being pulled, a person pushing an object, a person stopping a rolling ball, and two objects colliding and pushing on each other. Assessment is limited to different relative strengths or different directions, but not both at the same time. Assessment does not include non-contact pushes or pulls such as those produced by magnets
K-PS2-2- analyze data to determine if a design solution works as intended to change the speed or direction of an object with a push or a pull. Examples of problems requiring a solution could include having a marble or other object move a certain distance, follow a particular path, and knock down other objects. Examples of solutions could include tools such as a ramp to increase the speed of the object and a structure that would cause an object such as a marble or ball to turn. Assessment does not include friction as a mechanism for change in speed

Texas Essential of Knowledge and Skills

LA.K.2.A.iv- demonstrate phonological awareness by: identifying syllables in spoken words
LA.K.2.A.vi- segmenting multisyllabic words into syllables
LA.K.2.B.iv- identifying and reading at least 25 high-frequency words from a research-based list
LA.K.2.C.iii- spelling high-frequency words from a research-based list
LA.K.2.D.v- identifying all uppercase and lowercase letters
LA.K.5.D- create mental images to deepen understanding with adult assistance
LA.K.6.B- provide an oral, pictorial, or written response to a text
LA.K.6.F- respond using newly acquired vocabulary as appropriate
LA.K.10.A- plan by generating ideas for writing through class discussions and drawings
MA.K.2.A- count forward and backward to at least 20 with and without objects
MA.K.2.B- read, write, and represent whole numbers from 0 to at least 20 with and without objects or pictures
MA.K.2.C- count a set of objects up to at least 20 and demonstrate that the last number said tells the number of objects in the set regardless of their arrangement or order
MA.K.2.D- recognize instantly the quantity of a small group of objects in organized and random arrangements
SCI.K.6.C- observe and describe the location of an object in relation to another such as above, below, behind, in front of, and beside
SCI.K.6.D- observe and describe the ways that objects can move such as in a straight line, zigzag, up and down, back and forth, round and round, and fast and slow
