Students in grades 3–5 deepen conceptual understanding and build fluency, preparing for more abstract reasoning in middle school. Each year begins with the Week of Inspirational Math, a series of engaging videos and activities developed by Stanford professor Jo Boaler.
These lessons nurture a growth mindset and encourage resilience, perseverance, flexible thinking, collaboration, and the confidence to tackle challenges and learn from mistakes.

In addition to Investigations, we use a blend of materials to provide a well-rounded learning experience for our learners, including:
