RightStart Math for Kindergarten

RightStart Math builds Kindergarten number sense through the AL Abacus, visualization, and math games rather than rote worksheets.

How RightStart Math teaches Kindergarten math

In Kindergarten, RightStart approaches addition and subtraction by helping students see quantities in groups of five and ten on the AL Abacus. Children visualize numbers and basic operations on the abacus and through games, building strong mental-math foundations from the start. Because so much practice is game-based, fluency develops without the drudgery of repetitive worksheets.

Kindergarten focus: Count to 100, number bonds, addition and subtraction within 10, shapes, and patterns.
