BIG Monster Mandarin X Singapore Math [Private] - 1X/Week

BIG Monster Mandarin x Singapore Math [Private] provides kids with a foundation in the Singapore math method in a Mandarin Chinese immersion environment. 

What is Singapore math? Understanding math instead of just memorizing it. 

The Singapore math method focuses on the following concepts: CPA (Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract) progression, number bonds, bar modeling, and mental math.

"Singapore consistently ranks at the top in international math testing. The Singapore math method is a highly effective teaching approach originally developed by Singapore’s Ministry of Education in the 1980s for Singapore public schools. The method has been widely adopted in various forms around the world over the past twenty years following our introduction of the curriculum to the U.S. in 1998." -- https://www.singaporemath.com/
