Kumon

Math Curriculum

 

Kumon Math is a comprehensive program that develops a solid grounding in mathematics and the core skills required for students to advance successfully and confidently through any school math curriculum. From strong mental calculation skills to a command of basic algebra and beyond, Kumon enables students to gain proficiency at every level.

 

Mastering The Fundamentals – One at a Time

The Kumon Math curriculum progressively introduces and reinforces those fundamental concepts ultimately needed by students to excel in high school math. From the outset, exercises are designed to develop calculation skills, mathematical reasoning, and mental dexterity in the context of the material covered at every level. The material advances in small, almost imperceptible increments, and is then reinforced through multiple applications. Thus, students are able to fully grasp and completely retain each concept in turn. They are never merely exposed to topics that may turn up later on. Every topic introduced is covered in depth at that time to be thoroughly mastered by the student. This linear approach promotes a formidable facility with basic skills.

 

Doing Vs. Being Exposed

A thorough understanding of concepts is not attained without rigor. Worksheets clearly illustrate how each concept is related to the previous one, so students are able to make sense of it on their own. Formulas are introduced by demonstrating the logic leading up to them and the principles behind them. Shortcuts for solving problems are provided only after the child first learns how to work through all the steps and fully understands the mathematics at work.
