Number of Learners in Class: 3 - 10
Length of Class: 30 minutes
Type of Class: 12 weeks
Welcome to Math Grade 1 - our full year program consists of three separate terms and two options for live weekly meetings.
Option 1: One live online meeting per week and includes curriculum. Each term is billed individually based on the number of weeks in it and will require individual enrolment. Alternate terms can be accessed through the links below.
Option 2: For families wishing for additional math support we also offer a second live weekly option. This option provides a second live online meeting weekly. This second meeting with the instructor helps to ensure learners have ample time to practice and master concepts and allows for more in-depth exploration of material as well as testing (testing is optional to all families but only available with the second live meeting option). These secondary days must also be enrolled into separately each term.
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
The main goals of mathematics education are to prepare students to:
- Use mathematics confidently to solve problems
- Communicate and reason mathematically
- Commit themselves to lifelong learning
This live online, instructor led math class will help your learner thrive in mathematics this year. Course includes all curriculum (meets or exceeds all provincial curricular standards). Learners will attend live online instruction and will be given homework to completely throughout the week. Course will include marked assignments, projects, and an end of term written summary to assist documenting learner understanding. Families wishing to have learners complete testing will need to also enrol in the twice weekly option.
