Children usually acquire the ability to compare sizes (the sense of quantity) at an early stage. This is the starting point for arithmetic education. Children will learn how to make comparisons in object size, put objects in order of relative size, and learn different ways to describe them (long, short, deep, shallow, etc.).

Numbers are used to indicate the size of a collection, such as 3 cats, or 2 apples. Therefore, to understand numbers in this way, one must learn how to group objects of the same kind (to construct a set), and to compare the collections (which is bigger). ​

​

Expains the concept of numbers (1-5) from the concrete objects to the tiles, then to the words for the numbers and finally to the numbers themselves. Also explains the meaning of 0, and the addition and subtraction of numbers 0-5.

​

Sorting out (separating) and putting together is also known as synthesis and analysis. These are indispensable methods for the proper comprehension and presentation of ideas.

​

​

Helps children understand three-dimensional space (length, width and height) and the directions and relative position of objects within it. This is also an essential concept for everyday life.

​

If the numbers up to 5 are understood, then learning the numbers from 6 to 99 is easy. The next objective is the introduction of the number 10. This is the beginning of the study on place value. Take the time to explain this concept as this is often a stumbling block for many children.

Practicing this is of paramount importance in arithmetic. The aim is to make sure that children clearly understand the principle behind the rules, and that they get enough practice.

To assist in understanding addition and subtractio of three-digit numbers, it is recommended that children practice with the tile set in the Math Kit. To achieve the maximum benefit of the program, it is important that the technique be mastered so that it can be applied to any set of numbers. 

This level focuses on two examples of continuous quantity, namely, length and liquid level. Neither of these can be described by counting, so we need to include units of measurement. Children will understand the history and the nature of units, and why we need to use them.

​

This is a new computation for children. Children need to understand the meaning and use of multiplication, instead of simply memorizing the multiplication table. The Multiplication Tile Set will be very useful in providing hands-on practice.

​

​

In this level, children division as "sharing" or "putting equally". They need to understand the meaning and use of division. This level also introduces a bonus section on problem solving which encourages children to use the concepts learned and skills developed in the program so that they can appreciate better the usefulness of math and to build confidence in the subject.​
