Building a Strong Foundation (Grades 4-6)

Grades 4-6 are a critical time for students to develop a strong mathematical foundation and intuitive problem-solving skills. Instead of rote memorization, our program focuses on fostering a deep understanding of key concepts. By building fluency in essential topics, students gain the confidence and skills needed for success in their current math classes and future algebra courses.

Grade 4 Math

Students explore foundational math concepts through lessons and games, covering shapes, multiplication, exponents, counting, division, and logical reasoning.

Students learn by discovering the rules and concepts behind factors, fractions, integers, decimals, and probability.

Grade 5 Math

Students are engaged in discovery about solids, integers, expressions, equations, statistics, factors, multiples, and fractions.

Students develop a deep understanding of sequences, ratios & rates, decimals, percents, square roots, and exponents.

Grade 6 Math

PreAlgebra 1
View Syllabus

Students build a strong foundation in fractions, exponents, and decimals while exploring number theory and algebra. Topics include common divisors and multiples, primes and prime factorizations, basic equations and inequalities, and ratios.

PreAlgebra 2
View Syllabus

Students expand on concepts from Pre-Algebra 1 as they explore percents and square roots, develop geometric tools and strategies, and gain a foundation in discrete mathematics and statistics. The course also strengthens general problem-solving skills.
