Kindergarten Mathematics Standards: Measurement and Data AK Grade-Level Clusters AK-DLM Essential Elements Instructional Examples Describe and compare measurable attributes. K.MD.1. Describe measurable attributes of objects, such as length or weight. Describe several measurable attributes of a single object. K.MD.2. Directly compare two objects with a measurable attribute in common, to see which object has “more of”/“less of” the attribute, and describe the difference. For example, directly compare the heights of two children and describe one child as taller/shorter. Classify objects and count the number of objects in each category. K.MD.3. Classify objects into given categories; count the numbers of objects in each category EEK.MD.1-3. Classify objects according to attributes (big/small, heavy/light). Students will: EEK.MD.1-3. Order objects according to attributes Ex. Given two backpacks of different weight, describe or demonstrate which one is heavier. Ex. Given two cubes of different sizes, describe or demonstrate which cube is bigger and which cube is smaller. Ex. Compare heights of two classmates to a standard such as a meter stick. Ex. Compare sports balls (baseball, basketball, tennis ball, etc.) using various lengths of yarn. Ex. Given blocks of varying sizes, identify which are heavier/lighter and smaller/bigger. Students will: EEK.MD.1-3. Classify objects according to attributes (big/small, heavy/light). Ex. Given a big book and a small book, describe or demonstrate which one is bigger and which one is smaller. Ex. Given the shoe of a student and the teacher, identify which one is bigger and which one is smaller. Ex. Sort heavy and light objects according to weight. Ex. Given the hand of a student in the class and the hand of the teacher, identify which one is bigger and which one is smaller. Ex. Given two objects of varying weight, describe or demonstrate which is heavy/light or large/small. Students will: EEK.MD.1-3. Using a model or a template, sort objects by one attribute (big/small or heavy/light). Ex. Sort counting bears by size using a model or template.
