Mathematics is a core component of our curriculum, crucial for equipping students with the skills needed to navigate and succeed in everyday life. At Kuyim Primary School, we believe that mastering mathematical concepts will empower our students to reason logically, solve problems effectively, and understand the practical applications of maths in their daily lives.
Our mathematics program is designed to provide every student with access to high-quality instruction. It builds on their interests and experiences, helping them connect mathematical concepts to real-world experiences and to see the relevance of what they are learning. Students are encouraged to analyse, compare, explain, reason, justify, estimate, and synthesise mathematical problems, which enhances their problem-solving abilities.
Our focus on problem-solving strategies not only supports and challenges students but also fosters their engagement and enjoyment in mathematics, contributing to a positive attitude and growth mindset toward learning.
We conduct daily numeracy sessions that focus on key mathematical concepts and skills through a structured and engaging sequence which facilitates a deep understanding of core principles. Our program offers a variety of interactive resources and activities that capture students' interest and support their sequential mathematical development. Our teachers use both formal and informal assessments to evaluate student progress, learning preferences, and future requirements, ensuring a tailored and effective approach to numeracy instruction.
