ABOUT THE CLASS

This early mathematics class introduces children to mathematical thinking in Russian in an age-appropriate and engaging way.

Children develop an understanding of numbers, quantities, comparison, patterns and shapes while learning to notice relationships and solve simple problems. The emphasis is not only on finding an answer, but also on helping children think, observe and explain what they notice.

Because instruction takes place in Russian, the class also gives children a natural opportunity to hear and use mathematical vocabulary in Russian.

WHAT CHILDREN DEVELOP

• Early number sense
• Understanding of quantity
• Comparison skills
• Recognition of patterns
• Understanding of basic shapes and spatial relationships
• Logical thinking
• Attention and observation
• Ability to explain simple mathematical ideas in Russian

HOW WE LEARN

Mathematical concepts are introduced gradually through age-appropriate questions, visual examples, reasoning and problem-solving activities.

Children are encouraged to notice, compare, predict and explain, building a foundation for future mathematical learning while using Russian naturally.
