K - 5th Math Program Overview
At San Diego Hebrew Day, we
are dedicated to providing a top-notch education that prepares our students for
success. In our K–5th-grade math curriculum, we proudly utilize Math in Focus:
Singapore Math, a program that embodies global best practices and offers a
consistent K–8 pedagogical approach.
Math in Focus empowers our
students by fostering critical-thinking skills, promoting a positive attitude
towards mathematics, and instilling the confidence needed for academic
achievement. Rooted in the Singapore math curriculum framework, the program
recognizes problem-solving skills as central to the learning process.
What sets Math in Focus
apart is its concrete-pictorial-abstract approach, which enhances math
conceptual understanding. Through the strategic use of manipulatives, diagrams,
models, and abstract symbols, students engage in a comprehensive learning
experience that deepens their grasp of mathematical concepts.
Our commitment to student
success is evident in Math in Focus, which goes beyond the traditional
classroom setting. From scaffolding in math to offering unparalleled digital
supports, this program ensures equity for every student. We believe in
