Math is filled with symbols and can often seem abstract. But when connections are made to real life, math can be enjoyable, relevant and highly engaging.
At Gurukul High’s international standard curriculum, we focus on the ‘story’ and ‘meaning’ behind every math concept. This makes understanding, application and retention a whole lot easier.
At various grade levels of a Gurukul High powered school, Math is taught using the Concrete – Pictorial – Abstract approach.
All concepts at a primary level are first taught using physical objects like blocks, dice, or balls. This touch and feel method ensures better understanding of concepts and a stronger foundation.
Figures and drawings are used to solve math problems as a next step. Creative expression and connection to real life are the goals of this stage.
Once children have a better understanding and stronger foundation, they solve actual math problems using only numbers and symbols.
