Course Content (click here to expand)
Join us as we journey into expanding our math and numeracy skills, vocabulary and problem solving. Through a teacher-curated variety of mathematical games & activities, students reinforce and expand upon understanding of mathematical concepts, further develop of mathematical skills, develop greater ability in mental mathematics, learn the language and vocabulary of mathematics and do so in a positive co-operative learning environment that encourages development of communication skills. These also stimulate creativity and imagination in their young and inventive minds.Â
Required Materials
Students should bring a small, nut-free snack (can be eaten in 5-10 minutes at the end of class as a more relaxed social setting) and a water bottle. All other materials for this class will be supplied!
Time required outside of class
There may be times where students are given an OPTION to do something at home, but there is no “homework” that is required for this course/level.
Is This Level a Good Fit for My Child?
Students need basic game skills (waiting, taking turns, good sportsmanship). They need the ability to read at a low level and identify numbers 1-20 accurately. Students MUST be able to participate meaningfully and appropriately in a group setting (taking turns, treating others with respect/kindness, etc.). Students will spend some time working in small groups and some time working individually.Â
