KINETIC MATH: A REASON TO LOVE MATH

OUR STORY

From the inception of Kinetic Math on February 2014, we have been committed to help children develop a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts and hone their mathematical skills.

Kinetic Math Enrichment Center was born out of the founders’ desire to transform students’ deep-seated negative attitude about Math to a positive mindset by creating a safe haven for learning Mathematics. On November 2014, Kinetic Math San Juan started its mission to let students experience, explore, discover and enjoy math. After a year, we opened a new branch in Katipunan to cater to more students. Motivated to address the need for individualized learning, Kinetic Math BGC was established five months after, to offer one-on-one Math sessions.

ABOUT US

KINETIC MATH is your TRUE Math enrichment center. It offers energizing and engaging learning activities which help students develop numerical fluency, creativity, critical thinking and problem solving skills while enjoying math.

The programs’ progression from a learning task to guided practice to independent practice not only boosts the child’s confidence and fosters the child’s interest in Math but also enables the child to develop a deeper understanding of math concepts.

Kinetic Math aims to:

equip students with numeracy, reasoning, problem solving skills and critical thinking skills that are necessary for life.
provide students venue to reason logically, communicate mathematically, learn cooperatively and independently.
develop the children’s love for mathematics through engaging and challenging learning activities.

OUR PROGRAMS

Preschool Math is a program for children aged 3-5 years old. It aims to prepare them for the big school by providing them with a strong foundation in Mathematics. In this program, Math concepts are introduced in systematic, engaging, meaningful and fun way through exciting activities, fun games and songs.

Singapore Math is a math curriculum which has been recognized worldwide as it helps students develop not only their critical, creative and problem solving skills but also their positive attitude about math. It teaches students in stages, beginning with the concrete (using manipulatives), then moving to the pictorial (solving problems with pictures) and finally working in the abstract (numbers). It makes children learn not just the “how’s” but also the “why’s” of mathematics which strengthens the pupils’ conceptual understanding.

Math Tutorial Program is also offered to students who need help in understanding their Math lesson in school. During the tutorial session, the well-trained Kinetic Math teachers discuss the math lesson, and provide the students with guided and independent drills. They also check the student’s homework and review the students for quizzes and examinations.

Mental Math Program aims to teach children PROVEN strategies to compute mentally with accuracy and speed. This will empower the students to calculate mathematically in their heads without using paper and pencil. In this course, children will develop the fluency, flexibility and strategic thinking in mental computation by addressing the following:

WHAT: Children will learn the basic number facts and other math concepts.
WHEN: Students will have the ability to recognize the demands of a problem and choose the best strategy to solve it.
WHY: Each strategy is anchored to math concepts, making it easier for students to understand why a procedure works.
HOW: Various mental math strategies in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division will be discussed systematically and thoroughly in the course.

Math Exam Review Program is a review program that prepares the student for his quarterly exam. Mock exams are given to the students weeks before the exam to detect any misconceptions about the past lessons. During the session, the teacher revisits certain topics that are challenging for the child. It is also through this program that students learn varied test-taking skills.

Traditional Math to Singapore Math Transition Program aims to help the child bridge the gap between the math skills that he/she has learned in traditional math and the required math skills for his/her grade level in Singapore or in a school offering the Singapore Math curriculum. This course will equip the students with an in-depth understanding of the mathematical concepts and with varied tools for solving complex multi-step word problems, the core of the Singapore Math curriculum.

Bellwork is a research-based program from the United States which provides the students consistent practice of previously taught lessons. This helps children improve their understanding of mathematical concepts, master important skills in Math and reduce their test-taking anxieties.

Saxon Math is another well-researched program which is popular in the United States for its incremental approach to Mathematics. It breaks down complex concepts into related increments, thus, giving students ample time to understand and practice the lesson. It distributes instruction, practice, and assessment throughout the lessons and school year which enables students to master concepts. In Saxon Math, as new lessons are introduced, previously learned concepts are likewise reviewed. This helps in ensuring that the child integrates and retains math concepts.

Math Homeschool Tutorial is a program that is designed to help the home-schooled students understand math concepts and develop math skills using their homeschool math curriculum. This individualized, student-paced program optimizes the student’s learning by teaching the lessons in ways that suit each student’s individual interests, strengths and learning styles.
