MATH 6

Our curriculum integrates a dynamic, blended learning experience suited for both small-group and whole-class engagements, utilizing the Singapore Math approach that emphasizes problem-solving as a core skill, extending beyond traditional memorization and direct instruction. This method ensures students understand not just the 'how' but also the 'why' behind mathematical processes, fostering deep, conceptual comprehension. Our 6th-grade mathematics program utilizes the "Math In Focus Course 1" textbook, emphasizing five key learning aspects: Skills, Concepts, Processes, Metacognition, and Attitudes. The curriculum covers a broad range of topics, starting from Prime Numbers to Fractions, Decimals, Ratios, Rates, Percent, and then advancing to Algebraic Expressions, Equations, Inequalities, the Coordinate Plane, and Geometry, ensuring a comprehensive and thoughtful approach to mathematics education.

MATH 7

Our curriculum combines interactive learning for both small groups and the whole class, focusing on the Singapore Math method. This approach emphasizes solving problems creatively rather than just memorizing formulas. It helps students really understand mathematical concepts, explaining not just how to do something, but why it works that way. This makes sure students have a solid and clear understanding of math. Our 7th-grade mathematics curriculum is centered around the "Math In Focus Course 2" textbook, focusing on five essential aspects of learning: Skills, Concepts, Processes, Metacognition, and Attitudes. This comprehensive program begins with Rational Numbers and extends through Algebraic Expressions, Equations and Inequalities, Proportion and Percent of Change, Angle Properties and Straight Lines, Geometric Construction, and into areas of Circumference, Area, Volume, and Surface Area. It also covers key concepts in Statistics, Probability, and Compound Events, ensuring a well-rounded mathematical education.

MATH 8

In Grade 8, we deliver an engaging and versatile curriculum tailored to both individual and group learning dynamics, leveraging the strengths of the the UDL approach with a universal exposure and practice designed for different types of learners. There is a strong emphasis on problem-solving, steering away from traditional rote learning and direct instruction. It effectively deepens students' comprehension of mathematical concepts, fostering an understanding that encompasses both the practical 'how' and the theoretical 'why' of each topic. Our curriculum holistically addresses five crucial dimensions of learning: Skills, Concepts, Processes, Metacognition, and Attitudes. This approach not only enhances the students' mathematical capabilities but also cultivates a well-rounded, critical thinking mindset. This comprehensive program starts with a focus on Exponents and Scientific Notation, progressing to Linear Equations and Inequalities, Lines and Linear Equations, and Systems of Linear Equations. It then delves into Functions, the Pythagorean Theorem, and Geometric Transformations. The curriculum further explores Congruence and Similarity, along with Volume and Surface Area, culminating in a thorough understanding of Statistics. Each topic is designed to build upon the previous one, ensuring a cohesive and in-depth learning experience.
