[quote=Anonymous][quote]In Kindergarten, for example, students are now expected to perform a greater variety of tasks and use a greater variety of strategies for counting, adding and subtracting within 5, and demonstrating place value for numbers through 20. On the other hand, they are no longer expected to understand the concept of a half, recognize coins, tell time to the hour, or work with rulers or other measurement tools. [/quote] There is an assumption that the teachers will go through the lessons and the students will learn the first time. I have taught K children who could not count. Teaching place value will require a lot of growth and time. And, you still have to teach other subjects.[/quote]
