Grade-Specific Materials
Specifically designed for classroom and in-home use, JUMP's teaching materials present math in an accessible and enjoyable way - while also adhering to the requirements of the Ontario curriculum.
Introduction
JUMP Math's grade-specific materials (both Teacher's Guides and Student Workbooks) are at the core of its unique mathematics program. They are rigorously designed to help classroom teachers make math accessible for all of their students. The books provide a balance between guided and independent work, which has proven to be remarkably effective at closing the gap between weaker and stronger students. These materials are indispensable for a teacher who wishes to teach the complete curriculum without leaving anyone behind.
- Available for Grades 1 to 8
- Covers the Ontario curriculum, and over 90% of the Atlantic and Western curricula
- Tested and improved based on work in over 70 classrooms
Structure of Materials
Our Student Workbooks are printed in two parts. This was designed to keep the workbooks in a manageable size, allow for satisfaction of completing a workbook and the excitement of moving on to a new one. The worksheets in these books are designed for students to succeed in numerical and symbolic work as well as the communication and exploration of ideas.
There are three essential aspects to the approach:
1. Concepts and skills are isolated.
2. Material is introduced in steps.
3. Preparation and practice are provided.
Each grade-specific workbook has a corresponding Teacher's Guide, which contains:
- An introduction to the JUMP philosophy and teaching method
- Mental math skills
- Activities and extension exercises
- Blackline masters
NOTE: Teacher's Guides for Workbooks 7 & 8 are available in printed form from our distributor. Guides for Workbooks 1 through 6 are only available online through our website.
