Maths — No Problem! at Waipipi School

For the past five years, we’ve been using Maths — No Problem! at our school, and we’ve seen amazing growth in our students’ confidence and problem-solving skills. This programme is based on Singapore Maths, a proven approach that helps children truly understand maths rather than just memorising formulas.

What Makes Maths — No Problem! Special?

🔢 Step-by-Step Learning – Children start with hands-on activities, move to pictures, and then use numbers and symbols. This helps them build a solid understanding.

🧠 Problem-Solving Focus – Instead of just working through sums, students learn to think critically and solve real-world problems.

📚 Mastery Approach – We don’t rush! Each concept is fully explored before moving on, so children feel confident and secure in their learning.

How Has It Helped Our Students?

✅ More Confidence – Children feel capable and less afraid of tricky maths problems.
✅ Better Understanding – They grasp the ‘why’ behind maths, not just the ‘how.’
✅ Stronger Problem-Solving Skills – They can apply their learning in different situations, helping them in maths and beyond.

How Can Parents Help?

💡 Ask your child how they solved a problem, rather than just checking if they got it right.
🧮 Encourage them to explain their thinking—this deepens their understanding.
🔄 Remember, mistakes are part of learning! Encourage effort and perseverance.

We’re proud of the progress our students are making with Maths — No Problem! and look forward to continuing to build strong, confident mathematicians.
