Our Curriculum at a Glance
Our curriculum understands the different parts that make up a whole math learner. By using our proprietary framework C.R.A.F.T. ™ , we can see each math learner as an individual and meet their specific needs.
Counting
Counting by different intervals forwards and backwards and counting by mixed numbers lays the foundation for mental math fluency with addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Reasoning
Developing problem solving skills is essential to being a strong math learner. In Math Club students use the critical thinking necessary to pull pertinent information, solve equations, and consider how answers make sense in the context of a problem and the real world.
Automaticity Trapezium has developed incremental activities beginning in kindergarten that support full automaticity in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts by the end of 3rd grade.
Fluency
We support students in developing a mental map of numbers so that they can understand, relate, and connect numbers. Additionally we support students in transferring what they know about numbers to time, money and measurement.
Tenacity
Cultivating tenacity is essential to supporting a strong and confident math learner. Through different games and challenges we support students in developing the ability to approach hard math with a willingness to fail and keep trying. We want students to know they are capable of doing hard math!
