About JUMP Math

Welcome to JUMP Math

JUMP Math is a numeracy program founded in 1998 by mathematician, author and award-winning playwright John Mighton. We are a federally-registered charitable organization based in Toronto, Canada.

JUMP Math believes that all children can be led to think mathematically, and that with even a modest amount of attention every child will flourish. By demonstrating that even children who are failing math or are labeled as slow learners can excel at math, we hope to dispel the myths that currently prevail. We offer educators and parents complete and balanced materials as well as training to help them reach all students.

Welcome to our website!

Re-launched in December 2006, we hope this new design will make it easier for you to find what you are looking for, whether you are a teacher, an administrator, a parent, a volunteer or just curious about the program.  If you have any questions, concerns, or can't find what you're looking for, please don't hesitate to contact us via email or by phone at 416.596.7716.

JUMP Math is a registered charitable organization that relies on the generous donations of individuals, corporations and foundations.

"I am homeschooling at fifth grade student and am currently using your Fractions Unit that I downloaded from the net. I am thrilled with the program. My daughter actually says, "Hey, when are we going to do math?" And this is a child who got 66 percent in math last year."
