Mathematics at the first-grade level typically covers foundational concepts to


build a strong mathematical base. Here are some key topics often covered in a first-
grade math curriculum:

1. Number Sense:
 Counting and understanding the concept of numbers.
 Writing and recognizing numbers up to at least 100.
 Understanding the order of numbers.
2. Basic Operations:
 Addition and subtraction within 20.
 Basic understanding of the concepts of "more" and "less."
3. Place Value:
 Understanding tens and ones (units).
 Building numbers with tens and ones.
4. Geometry:
 Recognizing and identifying basic shapes (circle, square, rectangle,
triangle).
 Understanding and using positional words (e.g., above, below, beside).
5. Measurement:
 Introduction to basic measurement concepts, such as length and weight.
6. Data and Graphs:
 Collecting and organizing data.
 Creating and interpreting simple graphs.
7. Patterns:
 Recognizing and extending simple patterns.
8. Time:
 Introduction to telling time using analog and digital clocks.
 Understanding concepts of day and night.
9. Money:
 Identifying and understanding the values of coins.
10. Problem Solving:
 Solving simple word problems and applying basic math skills to real-life
situations.

Remember, the emphasis at this stage is on hands-on, concrete experiences to help


children understand abstract mathematical concepts. It's important to use
manipulatives, visual aids, and interactive activities to make learning engaging and
effective.
