CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RF.K.2.B

Count, pronounce, blend, and segment syllables in spoken words.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RF.K.2.D

Isolate and pronounce the initial, medial vowel, and final sounds (phonemes) in three-phoneme (consonant-vowel-consonant, or CVC) words.1 (This does not include CVCs ending with /l/, /r/, or /x/.)

Add or substitute individual sounds (phonemes) in simple, one-syllable words to make new words.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.K.5.A

Sort common objects into categories (e.g., shapes, foods) to gain a sense of the concepts the categories represent.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.CC.B.5

Count to answer "how many?" questions about as many as 20 things arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scattered configuration; given a number from 1-20, count out that many objects.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.CC.C.6

Identify whether the number of objects in one group is greater than, less than, or equal to the number of objects in another group, e.g., by using matching and counting strategies.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.MD.A.1

Describe measurable attributes of objects, such as length or weight. Describe several measurable attributes of a single object.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.MD.B.3

Classify objects into given categories; count the numbers of objects in each category and sort the categories by count.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.G.A.2

Correctly name shapes regardless of their orientations or overall size.

Looking for Warm-up Activities for Kindergarten?

When students enter the classroom, it can be quite a chore to turn on their minds so early in the morning.

Instead of a sudden start, ease students into concentration by beginning every day with a warm-up exercise.

Shake off the grogginess with our collection of 50 interactive activities that center on English language arts and mathematics skills. This spiral review of Kindergarten-level standards focuses on learning objectives like:

Onset-rime practice
Shape, number, letter, and color identification
Sorting and ordering
Counting
Spelling
Making inferences
Pattern recognition

And a lot more!

Display an activity on your interactive whiteboard for students to complete when they enter your class each day and watch their minds wake up.

Scaffolding + Extension Tips

In addition to morning warm-ups, use this activity any time you need to bring students’ minds back to learning, like after recess, lunch, and independent playtimes.

Students can write their answers in a warm-up journal or a mini dry-erase board.

Above-Level

Provide the student(s) with our Kindergarten Daily Warm-Up 3, Kindergarten Daily Warm-Up 4, or the Grade 1 Daily Warm-Up to challenge their skills.

Below-Level

Put students in pairs or teams to complete the activities collaboratively.

The activities in this teaching resource vary in complexity and in the time needed to complete them. To ensure you don’t repeat an exercise, change the heading color to red or simply move completed slides to the end of the presentation.
