The activities contained in this WebQuest are used to build Math Readiness
Skills for students entering Kindergarten. They will provide a
base to build upon to address the following Arkansas State Standards.
*Strand: Number and Operations
Standard 1 Number Sense:
Students shall understand numbers, ways of representing numbers,
relationships among numbers and number systems
NO.1.K.1
Count with understanding, explaining that each object should be counted only
once and that placement of objects does not change the total amount
NO.1.K.3
Connect various physical models and representations to the quantities they
represent using number names, numerals and number words up to 10 with and
without appropriate technology
*Strand: Number and Operations
Standard 2: Properties of Number Operations
Students shall understand meanings of operations and how they relate to one
another
NO.2.K.1
Count on (forward) and count back (backward) using physical models or a number
line starting at any whole number between zero and twenty
Ex.
Start at six and count forward to ten Start at eight and count backward to five
*Strand: Algebra
Standard 4: Patterns, Relations and Functions
Students shall recognize, describe and develop patterns, relations and
functions
A.4.K.1
Identify how objects are alike or different
A.4.K.2
Sort objects into groups in one or more ways and identify which attribute was
used to sort
A.4.K.3
Identify patterns in the environment
A.4.K.6
Duplicate, extend, create and describe repeating patterns using a wide variety
of materials
*Strand: Algebra
Standard 5: Algebraic Representations
Students shall represent and analyze mathematical situations and structures
using algebraic symbols
A.5.K.2
Identify, create, compare and describe sets of objects as more, less or equal
*Strand: Geometry
Standard 8: Geometric Properties
Students shall analyze characteristics and properties of 2 and 3
dimensional geometric shapes and develop mathematical arguments about
geometric relationships
G.8.K.3
Sort, describe and make geometric figures (triangle, rectangle [including
square] and circle) by investigating their physical characteristics
independent of position or size
*Strand: Geometry
Standard 11: Visualization and Geometric Models
Students shall use visualization, spatial reasoning and geometric modeling
G.11.K.1
