In 较低的学校, you’ll learn math in stages, gaining skills and confidence with each new lesson.
解决现实问题
从小时候起, our 较低的学校 math program builds the foundational skills and concepts necessary for students’ mathematical development and success. Their individual needs are met through small group instruction and support, as well as multiple teaching styles and strategies.
On their journey from pre-kindergarten to fifth-grade math, students learn not only to solve problems but also to articulate their rationale, 参与有意义的讨论, and formulate questions for inquiry. 最重要的是, our students come to see that there’s more than one right way to solve a problem and learn to persevere when faced with a challenge.

在婴幼儿。, math lessons take place throughout the day, with a hands-on approach that builds on students’ existing curiosity and challenges them to solve problems.
在婴幼儿。, students may:
- Develop analytical thinking skills
- Identify, name, and order whole numbers
- Explore the principles of one-to-one correspondence
- 量化和计数对象
- Recognize 模式 and sort by multiple attributes
- Chart, estimate, and graph classroom experiences
- Investigate size, shape, weight, and spatial sense
- Construct mathematical relationships
幼儿园的孩子很活跃, resourceful learners who construct, 修改, and integrate ideas by interacting with the physical world and with peers and adults.
在幼稚园，学生可以:
- Learn the rules of counting, writing numbers, measuring, and comparing shapes and sizes
- Begin to work on the concepts of 加减法
Students in first grade begin to develop the skills for real-life problem solving. Mathematical instruction in numeration, 位值, 加减法, 分数, 几何, 测量, 钱, and time are conveyed in a variety of ways to meet individual learning styles.
在一年级，学生可以:
- Participate in teacher-directed class discussions, cooperative and collaborative learning activities, 以及小组项目
- Discuss and share their thinking strategies
- Discover the many possible ways to solve a problem
Students in second grade are immersed in hands-on learning activities using manipulatives, 游戏, 以及解决问题的工具.
二年级时，学生可以:
- Learn more about numbers and numeration, 操作与计算, 数据和机会, 测量和参考系, 几何, 模式, 功能, 和代数
- Explore the integration of math skills across subject areas
- Develop an understanding of how math applies to real-world problems
Third grade is all about exploring, 讨论, and applying mathematical concepts that build on what students have already learned. Teachers work with students to go beyond memorization, so that learning is active and stimulating.
三年级时，学生可以:
- Extend their understanding of multiplication, 部门, 分数, 小数, 测量, 概率, 数据分析, and two- and three-dimensional 几何
- Expand their problem-solving strategies
在这个阶段, students move beyond basic math concepts to focus on varied problem-solving strategies and approaches, as well as articulating process and reasoning.
四年级时，学生可以:
- 应用 their study of facts, 位值, and numeration to more complicated topics
- Further explore multi-digit multiplication, 长除法, 分数, 小数, 图形, 和几何
The content and processes taught in fifth-grade math continue to emphasize computation skills, with an increasing focus on developing logical thinking and problem-solving strategies.
在五年级，学生可以:
- Make connections and develop strong representation tools
- 应用 their knowledge of operations to rational numbers and integers
- Add, subtract, multiply, and divide 小数, 分数, and mixed numbers
