| Standard 1: Students understand and use basic and advanced concepts of number and number systems | ||
| Numbers, Number Relationships, and Number Systems | FLP Lessons | |
| K.1.1 - Count to 20 | We're Into Pumpkins | Students count the seeds contained within a pumpkin (often hundreds) during an investigation of pumpkins. |
| Chewsy Choices | Students record the servings and kinds of food that they eat throughout a day, then transfer those items to the approprate space on a Food Guide Pyramid. | |
| K.1.2 - Count backward from 10 to 1 | ||
| K.1.3 - Demonstrate one-to-one correspondence by counting up to 10 objects | Chewsy Choices | Students record the servings and kinds of food that they eat throughout a day, then transfer those items to the approprate space on a Food Guide Pyramid. |
| We're Into Pumpkins | Students count the seeds contained within a pumpkin (often hundreds) during an investigation of pumpkins. | |
| K.1.4 - Identify ordinal numbers to order objects, 1st - 5th | Chewsy Choices | Students record the servings and kinds of food that they eat throughout a day, then transfer those items to the approprate space on a Food Guide Pyramid. |
| We're Into Pumpkins | Students work together in groups to estimate, then measure the circumference, diameter and height of their pumpkin. | |
| K.1.5 - Identify and write numerals to 10 | ||
| K.1.6 - Determine the relationship between two sets with 10 or fewer objects; i.e., less than, greater than, or equal to | ||
| K.1.7 - Use concrete materials to represent wholes and halves | We're Into Pumpkins | Students work together in groups to estimate, then measure the circumference, diameter and height of their pumpkin. Throughout the process they are to use the appropriate terms in their work. |

| Standard 2: Geometry and Spatial Sense | ||
| Data Collection, Display, and Interpretation | FLP Lessons | |
| K.2.1 - Identify and reproduce two-dimensional figures; i.e., circle, triangle, rectangle, and square | ||
| K.2.2 - Match a three-dimensional object with its stated name; i.e., cone, sphere, cube, cylinder (e.g., whcih of these is a cone?) | ||
| Coordinate Geometry | ||
| No benchmark expectations at this level | ||
| Transformation and Symmetry | ||
| No benchmark expectations at this level | ||
| Visualization, Spatial Reasoning, and Geometric Modeling | ||
| K.2.3 - Identify position and direction; i.e., inside, outside, between, above, below, behind, left, and right | ||

| Standard 3: Data Analysis, Statistics, and Probability | ||
| Data Collection, Display, and Interpretation | FLP Lessons | |
| K.3.1 - Sort objects according to a given attribute; i.e., use, size, color, and shape | Seed Surprises | By sorting and planting seeds, students discover seeds come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors, as well as produce plants. |
| Fruits and Vegetables | Students identify and compare fruits and other edible plant parts through a fast-paced game. The students compare and contrast similarities and differences between fruits and other edible plant parts. | |
| We're Into Pumpkins | Student count the seeds contained within a pumpkin (often hundreds) during an investigation of pumpkins. Seeds could then be sorted based on size. | |
| School Ground Caretakers | Students observe and collect items on the school ground, choose their own special place, and work with school groundskeepers to be respectful caretakers of their outdoor environment. The students group the found objects according to various categories. | |
| K.3.2 - Read and interpret picture graphs as sources of information | We're Into Pumpkins | Students put collected data about pumpkins into a graph. |
| Let's Celebrate! | Students list and tally the total times that each celebration was selected during interviews. Students make a simple bar or picture graph to show favorite celebrations. | |
| Germ Busters | Students use the information that was recorded and put into graphs about the growth of microbes on three different potatoes. The students use the graphs to determine which potatoes grew the least microbes; the one handled by unwashed hands, the one handled by washed hands, or the not handled potato. | |
| Tomatoes to Ketchup Chickens to Omelettes | Students sort types of processed foods into groups based on the raw food source. They create Venn diagrams for processed foods made from more than one raw food. | |
| Lunchtime Favorites | Students create Venn diagrams to help them compare and contrast information about the foods they eat. | |

| Standard 4: Measurement | ||
| Measurable Attributes, Measurement Systems and Units | FLP Lessons | |
| K.4.1 - Name the days of the week in order | ||
| K.4.2 - Tell time to the hour using digital and analog clocks | ||
| K.4.3 - Order pictures first, next, last based on time | Germ Busters | Students conduct an experiment about microbial growth on three potatoes, one that has not been handled, one that has been handled by unwashed hands and one that has been handled by washed hands. The potatoes are observed over a period of hours, then days, as the bacteria grows ont he potatoes. |
| K.4.4 - Compare and order objects according th their length or weight | ||
| K.4.5 - Identify a penny, nickel, and dime and state its value | ||
| Measurement Tools, Techniques, and Formulas | ||
| K.4.6 - Measure length with non-standard units; e.g., paper clips, cubes | ||

| Standard 5: Algebra, Functions, and Patterns | ||
| Patterns, Relations, and Functions | FLP Lessons | |
| K.5.1 - Identify, sort, and classify objects by one attribute | Seed Surprises | By sorting and planting seeds, students discover seeds come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors, as well as produce plants. |
| We're Into Pumpkins | Students count the seeds contained within a pumpkin (often hundreds) during an investigation of pumpkins. Seeds could then be sorted based on size. | |
| School Ground Caretakers | Students observe and collect items on the school ground, choose their own special place, and work with school groundskeepers to be respectful caretakers of their outdoor environment. The students group then found objects according to various categories. | |
| Fruits and Vegetables | Students identify adn compare fruits and other edible plant parts through a fast-paced game. The students compare and contrast similarities and differences between fruits and other edible plant parts. | |
| Tomatoes to Ketchup, Chickens to Omelettes | Student build connections between raw and processed food items by cutting out pictures, matching pictures, and making collages. The students sort pictures according to raw food source. | |
