Mighty Math: Common Core Curriculum Mathematics (PDF)

Year 1 of the Mathematics Curriculum is focused mainly on number and the manipulation of small numbers. Students should be able to count to 10 and add, subtract and multiply numbers with totals up to 10. They should also be able to recognise shapes and compare lengths areas and capacities. Finally, they should be able to follow or give directions forward, back, turn left and turn right.

After TWO years at school students will still be achieving at the first level however they should be able to count and manipulate numbers to 100. They should be able to continue number patterns based on ones, twos, fives and tens. They should also be able to compare different measures, complete simple transformations and represent simple statistical data in categories.

The sheets in this book offer arithmetic and math work in a wider context with many interesting and varied situations. All the situations are set for 5 to 7 year olds. For example if bowling or playing darts how can you score 10 or 12? The book is ideally used after an arithmetic unit to see children have understood the wider implications of their work. After completing this series, students will have increased confidence in dealing with numbers. Students enjoy and learn with Mighty Math. All the work is genuinely stimulating and enriching.
