Free Singapore Math Parent Workshop

The “reform math” many kids are currently doing differs greatly from the math that many parents learnt in their school days. This can often lead to frustration when parents support their kids at home. In this workshop, parents will learn about:

• how Singapore Math is often viewed by educators as a balanced curriculum (between traditional and “reform” math);
• Singapore math strategies that your child will be learning in our afterschool program;
• examples of logic reasoning questions, non-routine problems and bar modeling techniques that we use in our lessons;
• how Singapore Math middle school curriculum supports a strong foundation for high school advanced math;
• how Lexington Singapore School challenges our kids with rigor in a nurturing environment.
