1. Geometry
SHAPES & SPATIAL U NDERSTANDING
l Develops and uses vocabulary of spatial relationship (Top, Bottom, On,
Under, Inside, Outside, Above, Below, Near, Far, Before, After)
SOLIDS A ROUNDS US
l Collects objectsfrom thesurroundings havingdifferentsizesand shapes
like pebbles, boxes, balls, cones, pipes, etc.
l Sorts, Classifies and describes the objects on the basis of shapes and
other observable properties.
l Observes and describes the way shapes affect movements like rolling
and sliding.
l Sorts 2D shapes such as flat objects made of card etc.
2. Numbers
DEVELOPINGS A SENSE OF N UMBERNESS, C OUNTING AND O PERATIONS OF
NUMBERS 19 AND ZERO
l Observes object and makes collections of objects.
l Arranges the collection of objects in order by
Matching and
One to one correspondence
l Counts the number of objects in a collection.
l Makes collection of objects corresponding to a specific number.
l Recognises and speaks numbers from 1 to 9.
l Uses numbers from 1 to 9 in counting and comparison. (Real objects
and repeated events like clapping to be used for counting)
l Reads and writes numerals from 1 to 9.
l Adds and subtracts using real objects and pictures.
l Adds and subtracts the numbers using symbols + and .
l Approaches zero through the subtraction pattern
(such as 3 1 = 2, 3 2 = 1, 3 3 = 0).
NUMBERS FROM (1020)
l Forms Number sequence from 10 to 20.
l Counts objects using these numbers.
l Groups objects into a group of 10s and single objects.
l Develops the vocabulary of group of tens and ones.
l Shows the group of tens and ones by drawing.
l Counts the number of tens and ones in a given number.
l Writes the numerals for eleven to nineteen.
Class1 v
l Writes numerals for ten and twenty.
l Compares numbers upto 20.
ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION (UPTO 20)
l Adds and subtracts numbers upto 20.
NUMBERS FROM 2199
l Writes numerals forTwentyone to Ninety nine. Groups objects into tens
and ones.
l Draws representation for groups of ten and ones.
l Groups a number orally into tens and ones.
MENTAL A RITHMETIC
l Adds two single digit numbers mentally.
3. Money
l Identifies common currency notes and coins.
l Puts together small amounts of money.
4. Measurement
LENGTH
l Distinguishes between near, far, thin, thick, longer/taller, shorter, high,
low.
l Seriates objects by comparing their length.
l Measures short lengths in terms of nonuniform units (in the context of
games e.g. Gilli Danda and marble games).
l Estimates distance and length and verifies using nonuniform units (e.g.
hand span etc.)
WEIGHT
l Compares between heavy and light objects.
5. Time
l Distinguishes between events occurring in time using terms earlier and
later.
l Gets the qualitative feel of long & short duration, of school days v/s
holidays.
l Narrates the sequence of events in a day.
6. Data Handling
l Collects, represents and interprets simple data such as measuring the
arm length or circumference of the head using a paper strip.
7. Patterns
l Describes sequences of simple patterns found in shapes in the
surroundings and in numbers, e.g. stamping activity using fingers and
thumb.
l Completes a given sequence of simple patterns found in shapes in the
surroundings and in numbers.
