Developing Mathematics skills each year along multiple strands helps students develop diverse mathematical insights and nurtures their strengths and talents. We consider competence in Mathematics to be a critical component of success in our school. Mathematics is taught through the innovative use of resources and teaching aides. Penfield’s curriculum promotes:
- Mathematical thinking through the use of problem-solving activities and tasks.
- Investigating and making sense of mathematical problems.
- Conceptual understanding.
- Development of mental-math’s skills
- Arts and Physical Education
At Penfield, we recognize that students must develop skills and an appreciation for visual and performing arts, as well as physical education, in order to grow holistically as ‘complete’ individuals.
