How a lesson works
Singapore Maths moves from real objects to pictures to numbers. Every lesson follows the same three steps.
Build it
Children start with real objects and number blocks, so a new idea is something they can hold and move.
Solve it
Then they write it in numbers and solve it, knowing why the method works before they speed it up.
Why families choose us
A local centre with a proven programme behind it.
Hands on the whiteboard
Spark lessons run on interactive whiteboards, and children come up to solve each step themselves.
A Spark Education programme
Lessons, workbooks and whiteboard activities come from Spark Education, used by learning centres in Australia and beyond.
Thinking out loud
Children explain how they got an answer, so the teacher hears every child’s thinking, not just the result.
Close to home
Easy to reach from Silverdale, Orewa, Red Beach and Whangaparāoa.
Programmes
Grouped by age and NZ year level. The free trial includes a short assessment, so we can suggest the right class.
