[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Why? It's unrealistic to expect kindergarteners, by the end of the year, to be able to solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem? [/quote] Yes. It is unrealistic for some. Probably not for the kids of those who write on this board--but it is for some. [/quote] So what addition standard do you think is appropriate for ALL kindergarten kids (even the ones in your state who started at age 4, and who possibly are also learning disabled to boot) to be expected to master by the end of the year? Or do you not believe K students can do addition, even with objects? Do you think the best we can expect from K students by the end of the year is that they choral chant the numbers 1-5 in sequence while teacher is modeling? Or what?[/quote]
