1. Numbers
Content:
Introduction to numbers from 1 to 100. Children learn to recognize, write, and
count numbers. The concept of greater than, less than, and equal to is
introduced.
Objective:
To develop number recognition, counting skills, and basic understanding of
numerical order. This chapter builds a foundation for all future arithmetic.
2. Shapes
Content:
Introduction to basic shapes like circles, squares, triangles, and rectangles.
Children also learn to identify these shapes in real life objects.
Objective:
To help students recognize and differentiate between different shapes,
understand their properties, and apply shape recognition to the environment
around them.
3. Patterns
Content:
Identification and creation of simple patterns using objects, numbers, and
shapes. Students learn to recognize repeating sequences and predict what comes
next in a pattern.
Objective:
To enhance logical thinking and problem solving skills by identifying and
continuing patterns. This chapter lays the groundwork for understanding
sequences.
4. Addition
Content:
Basic addition using objects, fingers, and numbers up to 20. Children also
learn to use number lines and perform simple addition without regrouping.
Objective:
To introduce the concept of combining numbers to form a sum, helping students
develop basic arithmetic skills and an understanding of how numbers can be
added together.
5. Subtraction
Content:
Introduction to subtraction as "taking away" objects or numbers.
Children practice subtracting numbers up to 20 using objects, number lines, and
simple subtraction problems.
Objective:
To understand the concept of removing numbers or objects from a set and to
develop subtraction skills using everyday scenarios and examples.
6. Measurements
Content:
Introduction to basic measurements of length, weight, and capacity. Students
use simple objects to measure and compare sizes, weights, and volumes.
Objective:
To build an understanding of measurement concepts and how to compare different
objects in terms of length, weight, and capacity using nonstandard units.
7. Time
Content:
Basics of reading time using clocks. Children learn about hours, minutes, days
of the week, and months of the year. They also learn the concept of daily
routines and time management.
Objective:
To introduce children to the concept of time, helping them read clocks and
understand time sequences like morning, afternoon, and night.
8. Money
Content:
Introduction to coins and currency notes, their values, and simple
transactions. Children practice identifying coins, counting money, and
understanding basic financial transactions.
Objective:
To help children recognize and use money in basic transactions, developing an
early understanding of the value of money and how to handle it in real life.
9. Data Handling
Content:
Introduction to collecting, sorting, and representing data in the form of
simple charts or tables. Students learn to interpret visual data using objects,
pictures, and tally marks.
Objective:
To build skills in organizing and interpreting basic data. This chapter
encourages critical thinking and develops an understanding of how information
can be presented and analyzed.
10. Introduction to
Basic Arithmetic
Content:
Overview of fundamental arithmetic concepts such as addition, subtraction, and
the introduction of multiplication as repeated addition and division as
grouping.
Objective:
To provide a foundational understanding of basic arithmetic operations and
their real world applications. This chapter helps children begin to
conceptualize problem solving through numbers.
