Objectives / Goals

Vision

Every Child and Every Teacher A Creative Problem Solver

Objectives

To cultivate passion in the learning of Mathematics
To develop in each child an ability to select and decide on the best mathematical approach to problem solving.

Primary Mathematics Framework

The Primary Mathematics Syllabus aims to enable all students to:

acquire mathematical concepts and skills for everyday use and for continuous learning in Mathematics.
develop thinking, reasoning, communication, application and meta-cognitive skills through a mathematical approach to problem-solving.
build confidence and foster interest in Mathematics.

YN Mathematics Curriculum Framework

4 Key Considerations in Designing Mathematics Lessons:

Develop relational understanding.
Involve students as active learners.
Provide ample opportunities for success in Mathematics.
Create an inviting and vibrant environment for learning.

Math Trails
$Math Trail3$	$Math Trail2$	$Math Trail1$
Math Trails aim to provide P1 and P2 students with the opportunities to learn beyond the classrooms in authentic learning environments. Through the activities designed for Math Trails, the P1 and P2 students are also provided with the opportunities to apply their mathematical skills in the real world. The use of technology helps students to go about their Math Trails in a convenient and paperless way!

E2K Programme

E2K is a Mathematics enrichment programme for upper primary students who demonstrate interest and ability in Mathematics.

The programme comprises Mathematics curriculum units that are designed to challenge high-ability students and to introduce them to advanced Mathematics concepts and thinking. It fosters independence in mathematical thinking skills, as well as nurture other important 21st century competencies such as creative and critical thinking and effective communication skills.

During the E2K sessions, students will be assigned challenging Mathematics problems. They will have opportunities to discover, reason and communicate mathematical ideas and concepts, especially in problem solving (games-based learning).

Construction of Mathematics Kite for P5
Students experience real life application of mathematical knowledge as they apply their understanding of geometry in the process of constructing a kite. This event not only deepens mathematical understanding of students, but strengthens recall and process thinking skills through hands-on involvement in the kite construction. Apart from being engaging and fun, true joy is also elicited through seeing their newly constructed kite soar high in the sky.
