DESCRIPTION
Mathematics in Grades 1 and 2 includes the study of whole numbers, addition and subtraction, basic facts of multiplication and division,
basics of geometry, fractions, metric and local measurements, the use of money and their application to practical problems based on real
life activities.
Grades 3 and 4 deals with the study of whole numbers, the four fundamental operations, fractions and decimals including money, angles,
plane figures, measurement and graphs.
In Grades 5 and 6 the child is expected to have mastered the four fundamental operations of whole numbers, performs skills in decimals
and fractions, conceptualize the meaning of ratio and proportion, percent, integers, simple probability, polygons, spatial figures,
measurement and graphs. Simple concepts in Algebra is also introduced to be articulated in the high school.
Besides further development of the basic mathematical skills, the child is expected to solve problems related to business and industrial
activities in the community.
TIME ALLOTMENT
The 20-minute increase in the daily time allotment is given to ensure that all lessons are finished and there will be more activities that
involve grouping practical investigations and problem solving. Pupils learn more if they have hands on or manipulative and interactive
activities, learn on their own, explore, discover, generalize and apply what they learned in their daily life.
