Elementary School Math

Elementary School Math Program

We take the job of building our students’ math foundation seriously in our elementary school program: Math Basics, such as addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, the knowledge of basic geometrical shapes and patterns, the ability to think through word problems, are vital for high-level mathematical achievement. Our students solidify the grasp of mathematical operations with plenty of practice and no use of calculators. A firm foundation during formative years will give students the confidence to engage in high-level abstract thinking required by algebra, trigonometry, and calculus that are required later in life at high school & university level.

Math Project boosts a child’s math education, no matter what skill levels they begin with.

Our teachers are trained to tailor lessons that match the student’s learning style, boosting student confidence and enabling our students to perform well on standardized tests, such EQAO. Our typical student demonstrates above-average, performance in their school math within a few months of enrolment at Math Project. We achieve this by identifying their learning gaps during our initial Free Assessment, and then work diligently to build their basic math knowledge. This foundation leads them to transfer these concepts to more difficult concepts, such as algebra, which they will learn in middle school.

Enrichment Math and Math Contests

Students who like math and are ahead of their peers choose to stay in Math Project because they are introduced to additional math concepts that are not typically covered at school. These students are also motivated and trained to compete in national and international math contests, such as: Mathematica, Kangaroo, Gauss, Pascal, Euclid, Canadian Open Math Challenge (COMC), International Mathematical Olympiad and many other math contests. Such students may also qualify for Math Project’s ‘Enrichment Program Scholarship’ (please speak to our Program Manager for more details). Many of our Enrichment Program students pass IB / AP program entrance tests with flying colours.

K-8 Homework Club

While the students enrolled in Math Project’s elementary school curriculum are typically much ahead of their peers at school and are able to do their school work with little assistance, it is often the case that some students join the program late and parents want their school math to get immediate attention. In that case, we recommend our program, the K-8 Homework Club*, as a temporary solution to help them do well in school. This program can also be complemented with our regular elementary school program to ensure long-term success, at a parents’ discretion.

Our K-8 Homework Club* ensures elementary school students are confident and equipped to complete their school math homework. This program provides homework help on a one-on-one basis, enables students to stay ahead of school, and prepares them for school tests in advance. Our students perform with confidence and commonly ace math in school.
