Why attend?

Singapore’s approach to math education is much different from curricula commonly taught in American schools. For this reason, teachers need a solid understanding of Singapore’s pedagogy to deliver instruction.

Since 2008, Math Champions’ Teacher-Trainers have helped thousands of teachers understand and effectively teach elementary mathematics. The Jumpstart your Singapore Math® program is based on training methods refined over the past decade through our work with more than 130 schools and more than 200 seminars for educators.

This workshop is for current and potential users of Primary Math and Math in Focus, as well as…any teacher interested in incorporating these techniques into their own classroom, regardless of their current curriculum.

Learn from the Best

Take advantage of this unique opportunity to learn directly from acclaimed trainers and experts in the Singapore Math approach.

What attendees say about our training:

Day One: Introduction and Overview of the Singapore Math approach and its Key Components

  • Teaching concepts to mastery: Explore the cohesion and how concepts build and spiral throughout the grades.
  • Using the concrete-pictorial-abstract approach to teach place value: Moving from linking cubes to base-10 blocks to working with place value discs and pictorial representations to develop an understanding of concepts and problem-solving?

Day Two: Choose your own adventure:

Option A-Kindergarten through Second Grade

Focus on a closer look at the specific strategies taught in Kindergarten through second grade. Educators will leave with a depth of understanding and the tools needed to successfully implement the curriculum at the lower grade levels.
