Innovative Kids' Math Program on the Mainline
Golden Key Russian School is now offering their innovative math programs in English weekdays after school!
As American kids fall behind other nations in math proficiency, Math Mosaic is a wonderful opportunity to expose kids to an alternative and highly engaging experience of math.
“We don’t do drills or plow through piles of worksheets…”
This unique program fosters love for math at an early age – BEFORE kids develop any math anxiety or aversion.
“The key objective of our math classes is to instill a curiosity and love for the beautiful and rich subject of mathematics at an early age. To that end, we don’t do many drills or plow through piles of worksheets. Instead, we solve logic puzzles, construct cool patterns, hide in the function machine, create symmetrical butterflies, build with blocks, have dice competitions and play games. Don’t be fooled – in the process, the children are introduced to fascinating and complex mathematical topics such as geometry of numbers, probability, functions, algebra and many others at an age-appropriate level (yes – five year olds can understand the concept of a function or solve an equation!).“

The Key is Comprehension, not Memorization
Math Mosaic strives to teach that, contrary to what students are often told in traditional math classes, the key to math is comprehension, not memorization. Students learn that there can be multiple right answers and approaches to solving almost any problem.
Students gain confidence in their mathematical abilities, develop critical thinking skills, and cultivate an appreciation for a subject that is often portrayed as dry and boring in school.
