Arithmetic
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]This part of learning focus on the study of numbers, especially the properties of the traditional operations on them—addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
It will begin with basic counting till the mastery of complex and mixed operations of numeration.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”slideInLeft” css=”.vc_custom_1591413720157{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]
Concepts
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]This part of learning focus on students understand the ‘why’ or ‘big idea’ of mathematic concepts. Mastery of a mathematics concepts means students not only know the answers, they know the working and real meaning behind the answers.
With this, the pain of memorising math facts is taken away because students can figure out an answers and able to tell if the formulas isn’t working for different context of mathematics problems. It is essentially reaching an upper tier in mathematical thinking that allows students to think and process abstractly.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”slideInLeft” css=”.vc_custom_1591413737330{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]
Applications
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”fadeIn”]This sections enriching students experience in making use of what they pick up along their journey of learning Arithmetic and Concepts, applying them to solve mathematical problems while nurturing their Maths Sense.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][stm_spacer height=”130″ height_tablet=”90″ height_mobile=”40″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” bg_pos=”100% 0″ show_bg_mobile=”disable” show_bg_mobile_xs=”disable” shadow_x_offset=”0″ shadow_y_offset=”0″ shadow_blur=”0″ shadow_spread=”0″ shadow_color=”” css=”.vc_custom_1591357357679{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;background: #f2f3f5 url(http://acamaths.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/318871-P92O5X-695-scaled.jpg?id=5813) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column shadow_x_offset=”0″ shadow_y_offset=”0″ shadow_blur=”0″ shadow_spread=”0″ shadow_color=”” offset=”vc_col-lg-4 vc_col-md-4″][/vc_column][vc_column shadow_x_offset=”0″ shadow_y_offset=”0″ shadow_blur=”0″ shadow_spread=”0″ shadow_color=”” offset=”vc_col-lg-8 vc_col-md-8″ css=”.vc_custom_1591345333335{padding-top: 10% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-bottom: 15% !important;padding-left: 15% !important;}”][stm_spacer height=”67″ height_mobile=”30″][vc_custom_heading text=”Curriculum Structure” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]
Like structure of buildings, solid foundations determine stability. Skills building in Mathematics require similar principle. AcaMaths construct solid mathematics foundations of students by focusing our curriculum of Essential Maths in these building blocks. Each are important pillars of success in mathematics.

Our assessments are used to understand what each individual child needs to progress and it is certainly not a measure to reward or punish them.
We are taking our assessment prior and after learning progress to carefully identify which specific math skills areas that each student’s need at his/her own development & learning pace.
Check-ups and quizzes are make regularly throughout the learning in progress to ensure skills mastery and retention.[/info_list_item][info_list_item list_title=”Tailor-made Learning” heading_tag=”h4″ list_icon=”Defaults-cog gear” animation=”swing” title_font_size=”desktop:28px;” desc_font_size=”desktop:18px;” title_font_line_height=”desktop:34px;” desc_font_line_height=”desktop:24px;”]We carefully select personalised tailor-made lessons plan from the information we obtained from the assessments and assist children progress through the materials.
