Review is completed both naturally as concepts evolve and explicitly with review sections at the end of each unit in the workbook. Bolster your child’s emerging confidence with independent practice problem sets Enriching “Math at Home” sections Natural and explicit review to increase retention and deepen understanding of learned concepts Kolbe Academy's homeschool Math 1 (Singapore) course aims to introduce students to mathematics fundamentals and begin developing independent problem-solving skills. Singapore math emphasizes real-world examples and learning before moving slowly into more abstract conceptual applications in a “Concrete à Pictorial à Abstract” teaching model. In addition to this, it implements a scaffolding learning approach where the student is provided with models that are faded as they become comfortable with the contents of the lesson. Developing essential logic and reasoning skills necessary for future educational endeavors and lifelong learning is one of the main tenets of Singapore math and a special passion of Kolbe Academy. In this course, your student will learn: Numbers and number order Addition and subtraction Number position Shapes and spatial awareness Measurement Comparatives Simple graphs Multiplication Time concepts Simple money concepts Critical and ordered thinking strategies Course this book is used in: Math 1: Singapore: Homeschool- Option 2 Our recommendation:Primary Mathematics Standards Edition 1A-6B workbooks are meant to accompany the Primary Mathematics Standards Edition 1A-6B textbooks and contain exercises for the student to do independently.
