Month-by-Month OverviewKindergarten Regular School Year 

 Everyday Mathematics Kindergarten activities require 60 minutes of mathematics per daydivided among daily routines, core whole group and small group activities, math centers,teaching options activities, and games. In addition to the content standards, all Everyday

 Mathematics lessons address the process standards: problem solving, representations,reasoning and proof, connections, and communication.
