Mathematics
The Mathematics Program ensures students acquire and apply mathematics concepts and skills and develop a positive attitude towards mathematics. The curriculum instils a deep understanding of mathematical concepts, enabling students to solve problems creatively and confidently.
At Ekya Schools, we use the Singapore Math Methodology to ensure that all students achieve a level of mastery of Mathematics. Building upon the foundation principles laid in earlier years, our Senior School Math program further challenges students to explore advanced mathematical concepts, fostering critical thinking and analytical skills essential for higher-level education and real-world applications.
Through seamless integration of conceptual understanding and practical problem-solving, we strive to nurture mathematically proficient and confident learners prepared for the challenges of the future.
Learning Area Purpose
The Mathematics Program equips learners to
- develop mathematical thinking and attitude.
- use mathematical processes for problem-solving.
- engage in mathematical challenges and discussions.
- understand the relevance and need for mathematics in the real world.
Our Process
Key Learning Experiences
Singapore Math Methodology for Grades 1-6
At Ekya Schools, we use this methodology to foster deep understanding through a concrete-pictorial-abstract approach (CPA) and the ability to nurture problem-solving skills and mathematical fluency for a strong foundation in the learning area.
MLS- Math Learning Solution for Grades 1-6
We use an adaptive learning platform that personalises instruction, which engages students with interactive exercises and real-world applications for reinforcement of concepts.
Mathematical Processes
The focus is on building a mathematical mindset using processes such as problem-solving, reasoning, heuristics and communication through a structured approach.
Transition to Middle School and Senior School
The transition from Singapore Math to the Math curriculum is a smooth and enriching experience for students. The CPA understanding, problem-solving, and mathematical processes align seamlessly with the Middle and Senior School Math curriculum’s focus on visual representation, conceptual understanding, and mathematical thinking. Based on their stream preference in Grade 11, students have the option to choose between Mathematics(Science) and Applied Mathematics(Commerce and Humanities).
Key Learning Experiences
Singapore Math Methodology
Our program utilises the Singapore Math Methodology’s concrete-pictorial-abstract (CPA) approach. This hands-on learning experience promotes a deep understanding of mathematical concepts, empowering students to solve problems confidently and develop a strong foundation for future success.
MLS - Math Learning Solution
Our program uses smart technology to personalise students’ learning journey. This means engaging exercises and real-world examples that fit the student’s needs, helping them truly understand and remember key concepts.
Developing a Mathematical Mind
Our program focuses on building a strong mathematical mindset. We achieve this through a structured approach that emphasises processes like problem-solving, reasoning, using heuristics, and clear communication.
