What to Expect

Each level of the NumberWays Family curriculum supports growth in two important dimensions: your child’s learning and your development as a parent-teacher.

🌟 For Children:

By the end of each level, children gain a deeper understanding of foundational math concepts:

  • Level 1: Children begin to understand individual numbers and their meanings.

  • Level 2: They explore early number concepts such as one-to-one correspondence, number sequence, cardinality and more.

  • Levels 3 & 4: Children learn to apply addition and subtraction in real-life situations, developing the confidence to solve everyday math problems—each child progressing at their own pace.

👪 For Parents:

As you guide your child through each level, you’ll gradually build confidence in your role as a learning partner. You will develop skills to support your child’s growth, while also nurturing a stronger emotional bond.

Teaching your child is a lifelong journey—there’s no “parent university,” yet the ability to guide, model, and communicate is essential. Especially in early childhood, these moments help children not only learn math but also form their values and ways of thinking.

Most Exciting Outcomes of the Full Curriculum

By the end of the full NumberWays Family curriculum, children will experience remarkable growth across several areas:

  1. Advanced Number Sense

    • Children will intuitively understand larger numbers, such as:
      • Two-digit numbers (11–99)
      • Three-digit numbers (101–999)

    • This understanding happens naturally and effortlessly, often with just a simple number prompt—no direct teaching required.

  2. Foundation for Complex Math

    • Early experiences with number structure will lay the groundwork for future understanding of place value, operations, and more complex math concepts.

  3. Transferable Cognitive Growth
    These foundational math experiences also support other key developmental domains:

    • Spatial awareness (e.g., visualizing and organizing space and quantity)

    • Emotional development (e.g., building confidence and persistence through learning challenges, making friends with a “community” of number friends)

    • Narrative understanding (e.g., sequencing events, understanding cause and effect)

    • Language and literacy development (e.g., using math talk, building vocabulary, and logical reasoning)

You’re not just teaching math—you’re helping your child make sense of the world.
