Number of Learners in Class: 3 - 10
Length of Class: 30 minutes
Type of Class: 9 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.
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.

Repeating patterns:
· identifying sorting rules
· repeating patterns with multiple elements/attributes
· translating patterns from one representation to another (e.g., an orange-blue pattern could be translated to a circle-square pattern)
· letter coding of pattern
· predicting an element in repeating patterns using a variety of strategies
· patterns using visuals (ten-frames, hundred charts)
· investigating numerical patterns (e.g., skip-counting by 2s or 5s on a hundred chart)
· beading using 3–5 colours
2D shapes and 3D objects:
· sorting 3D objects and 2D shapes using one attribute, and explaining the sorting rule
· comparing 2D shapes and 3D objects in the environment
· describing relative positions, using positional language (e.g., up and down, in and out)
· replicating composite 2D shapes and 3D objects (e.g., putting two triangles together to make a square)
