Frequently Asked Questions

Anywhere in the world, the maths topics being taught are the same (e.g. Fraction, Decimal, etc.). It is the approach in teaching these topics that is different.

Singapore Maths places big emphasis in Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract approach to promote deep conceptual understanding. That means, instead of just spoon-feeding students with information or giving them formulae to memorize, they are given learning opportunities so they could explore concepts and derive generalizations accordingly. This way, they are able to make sense of all the new things they have learned, and they are able to retain new information better.
