Welcome to primary math! The primary years are a time of exploration and continued growth for children. During this time, children are learning basic building blocks that they will take with them for the rest of their educational career. They are also beginning to see the world around them through a different lens; they are seeing beyond their own small world. How wonderful that you get to be alongside them for this development and growth! I am privileged to lead you and your child(ren) through Singapore Math during this exciting time.
Level 1 is thrilling because this is the age when the foundations from kindergarten math begin to solidify and you get to see sparks of understanding and wonder every day! Our Level 1 math collection, although a step up and a bit more challenging than kindergarten math, is still playful and fun. Learning through playful engagement is not only more enjoyable, it is also more successful. We’ll play games together, challenge each other with flashcards, and use manipulatives to keep math hands-on. Most importantly, we’ll continue to learn how to make connections between math and your student’s ever-widening world. I’ll say it again as I said it with our kindergarten collection—math doesn’t have to be scary, or boring, when it’s learned the right way and at the appropriate level of development.
Level 1 math is a natural extension of kindergarten math. With my years of teaching in the classroom, as well as teaching my own three children at home, I am well equipped to take you and your child(ren) through this engaging year of math—whether it’s at home, in the classroom, or any other setting. As we travel through this year together, watch and wonder as Singapore Math becomes accessible and fun for both you and your child(ren).
Warmly, Amy Houser

Each child learns differently and will need additional practice at different times. Please slow down to repeat lessons and practice the concepts more with your child(ren) at times when they need it, especially during the more complex concepts.
Primary students still learn best through playful engagement. The Wisdom Wonder Project’s Primary Level 1 Singapore Math Collection reflects this value by maintaining an engaging nature while providing quality education of serious mathematical concepts that are developmentally appropriate.
In today’s culture, there is pressure to get ahead and to race to the finish. The Wisdom Wonder Project’s approach to math is different; we intentionally move carefully and systematically through the concepts. As a firm foundation develops through the primary years, and continues during the 3rd and 4th grade years, students are able to quickly assimilate more complex concepts as they go through the subsequent years of math. By teaching methodically at the start, and working within the developmental proclivities of 6 and 7 year olds, this first year of primary prepares children for success in math now and in the years to come.
As you prepare to start the video series with your child(ren), watch the introduction video “Why Singapore Math,” familiarize yourself with the books, and think about how the flow of the lessons will go. You will complete 5 lessons each week with your child(ren). The lessons might be videos, practice work, time to review the concepts, working through Mental Math, and/or playing math games—but not all in one day, of course! It is important for your child(ren) to practice math every day.

Putting the time in, even when it seems easy, builds your child(ren)’s math sense and skills for when the concepts become more challenging.
During the video lessons, make sure to pause the video when needed to complete activities or to answer Mrs. Houser’s questions. After a video lesson, we recommend that you have your child(ren) complete all of the textbook and/or workbook pages that correspond with that lesson while you sit side-by-side and guide them as necessary. These pages are listed below with each lesson. You can also use the Home Instructor’s Guide (HIG) to help you re-teach and review the concepts with your child(ren). This book includes valuable information on how to use the manipulatives to fully teach the concepts, explanations of each concept and what to focus on, additional reinforcement problems, and fun games. Make sure that your child(ren) can tell you why they did a problem the way they did and that they can do the problems “another way.” (Those are the questions you want to ask them all the time!)
Singapore Math materials and manipulatives are what enable the concepts to be learned thoroughly by your child(ren), so they are well worth the investment. Children first learn concrete concepts through the use of manipulatives, then pictorial concepts through pictures and images, and finally abstract concepts through numbers and signs. These steps are vital for deep comprehension and are systematically laid out in this collection of videos and lessons. Make sure to have all of the necessary materials in advance so that you are not stuck waiting for something to arrive or driving all over town to find it in time. You can print the templates all at once at the beginning, or you can print and prepare the templates as you need them for the lessons. When you print the templates provided, it is helpful to laminate them, or cover the front and back with clear contact paper, so that your child(ren) can write on them with a dry erase marker and you can easily use them again and again. If you would like to be able to use the number cards, flashcards, subitizing dot cards, or ten frames with dots for memory and go fish games, it is worthwhile to back them with construction paper or print them on cardstock so the ink does not show through the back.
To lay a strong foundation in math for your child(ren), you want to build in time for review and practice. While the collection does have this, you will also want to review with a brief warm up each day. Continually practice each concept taught throughout the weeks and months to solidify the concepts. But, don’t double up on lessons or do more on certain days. While your intention may be valid and understandable, it is necessary to do the lessons one at a time over the course of the
C O L L E C T I O N O V E R V I E W
L 01 SINGAPORE CO 7© 2021 The Wisdom Wonder Project. All Rights Reserved.
entire school year to enable the concepts to sink in and to help your child(ren) fall in love with learning math.
Your daily math time will look something like this, depending on your preferences:
Gather your materials. Warm-up for 2-5 minutes. See the warm-ups template for ideas.Watch the video with your child(ren).Re-teach any concepts they are uncertain about.Guide your child(ren) to complete the textbook and/or workbook pages using manipulatives.
When the lesson is “review on your own,” go back to some basic concepts and some concepts from the recent lessons that your child(ren) should practice more. Use those to provide some ways for your child(ren) to review, first with manipulatives and then with numbers and equations (if applicable). You can reuse problems from the book, use the reinforcement sections from the Home Instructor’s Guide (HIG), or make up your own scenarios. In Singapore Math, there is no wasted practice or review time; you even want to weave it into your everyday life.
When the lesson includes Mental Math, remember that it is meant to be a stress-free activity that is not timed or rushed. Allow your child(ren) to use counters or the appropriate manipulative until they don’t want to anymore. Some students may feel overwhelmed with Mental Math pages, so feel free to split them up over a few days or to choose an appropriate number of problems for your child(ren) to complete by having them do every other one or letting them choose 8-10 problems to complete. Mental Math is an important skill for your child(ren) to build. The ability to break down a complicated problem mentally, and to easily put it back together all in their head, is a skill that starts now. But at the developmental stage that Level 1 children are still in, they will need to use manipulatives as they work on this new way of thinking. The Mental Math exercises and answer keys are at the back of the Home Instructor’s Guide (HIG). Simply photocopy the exercises for your child(ren) and cut them apart. You may also chose to write problems on a whiteboard if you think that will help your child(ren).
Games are an integral part of learning. Play allows the brain to more quickly acquire knowledge and solidify concepts. There are games listed throughout the Home Instructor's Guide and on the template at the end of this document. When the lesson for the day includes
C O L L E C T I O N O V E R V I E W
L 01 SINGAPORE CO 8© 2021 The Wisdom Wonder Project. All Rights Reserved.
games, take the time to play math games. Don’t gloss over them or underestimate their importance; you and your child(ren) will be better off for having had that playful learning time together.
Always remember that manipulatives are necessary tools for math; they aren't a crutch or a back up. Rather, they are the means necessary for your child(ren) to eventually be able to complete the problems with accuracy because they have seen it and moved it with their hands so many times.

Materials/manipulatives are vital to teaching math and are at the core of developing math sense for primary students. While this may seem like many things to purchase, you will likely find that you have much of it already. All of the materials are meant to enhance your child’s learning experience. Many can be found around the house, while some will need to be purchased. Our goal is to find affordable options for high quality products. Links are included for your convenience, but you are welcome to substitute brands or make your own materials.
All of the materials for each lindividual esson are listed in the Lesson Materials section below and also in the materials section of the video lesson itself. Some of the materials on that list are pulled from the Collection materials below.

Now that we have learned the number bonds from 1 to 10, add a quick review of number bonds to your 2-5 minute warm-up. Always do this using manipulatives. To incorporate this into your warm-up, start with 1 as the target number and have your student fill in a number bond mat with a correct number bond. The next day use 2 as the target number and so on. As the numbers get bigger, your student can just give 2 or 3 of the different number bonds for the target number. Once you have made it to 10, choose a new number from 1-10 for your student to review each day in random order.

An easy way to incorporate many skills into your warm-up is to use the calendar and let the date be your guide! If the date is the 8th, your student will show a number bond that makes 8, show 8 in tally marks (remember to circle groups of 10 when applicable), show 8 on a ten frame, show 8¢, make (or say) an addition or subtraction sentence, and show 8:00 on a clock. Your student might like to do all of the activities each day or you can pick and choose a few for each day. It may take some time to get started, but soon you both will be going through it fairly quickly. To extend the review, your student can show multiple ways to make 8 in a number bond or with coins. Once the date is past the 20th, I suggest sticking with 3-10 for number bonds and the +/- sentence, but your student can continue to show the date for tally marks & coins.

moving on to the next unit. Regular review from here on out is crucial to keeping the number bonds fresh in your student’s mind so they can recall them with ease. Showing the number bonds on a ten frame is ideal. Not only will you be practicing the target number, but you can also always ask, “How many more do you need to make 10?”

Reviews are not meant to be tests, but rather a tool to be used as a checkpoint to help gauge for understanding. Read the instructions to your student as needed. Keep a supply of manipulatives nearby for your child to access. If there were any tricky concepts for your child in the review, add them into your daily warm-up practice. If you need to pause and re-teach some concepts, take the time for that as well.
These reviews are built into the textbooks as comprehensive reviews. If you are not using the books, create a review for your child that goes over all of the concepts studied to this point. Make sure to include multiple examples for each step in the concepts so that your child can practice using different strategies and solution methods.

Geometric solids, whiteboard and marker or paper and pencil for tracing, and as many objects as possible that resemble the shapes in this unit (sphere-ball; rectangle-block or box; cube-dice or rubix cube; cylinder-soup can or spool of thread; triangle-pyramid or triangular ruler).
Encourage your student to look for shapes in every room of your house! Keep track with tally marks, and review your results at the end of the unit. Then, look for shapes outdoors as well! Once you start, you’ll see shapes EVERYWHERE!

Tangrams will challenge the spatial side of your child's brain, which can lead to frustration. But, don’t give up! Spatial development is an under-appreciated math skill and should be developed. Puzzles are great for spatial development! Unifix Cube Sudoku is another option. You can also allow your child to pack a box with various items from your pantry. Can they make everything fit nicely and close the lid?

Just like our previous unit, capacity is best learned through exploration. Pull out all sorts of containers for pouring and comparing, along with a few towels if you are working inside! For added fun, bring out some liquid watercolors or food coloring to explore color mixing! Make sure that you practice the examples with your student, using different containers if that is all you have handy. Manipulating the containers and the water is the most important part of the learning in this unit.

Please use this day to make sure your student can show you the addition and subtraction process learned so far concretely (with the base ten blocks) and pictorially (by looking at a drawing). Because these are foundational skills, it is important that your student fully grasps the concepts before moving on to abstract numbers and equations (traditional math problems). You can always ask, “Can you show me another way to do it?” You can also take this time to look back to see if there are any pages you should focus this review time on.

For an extra visual, use a ten frame mat in the ones column on the place value mat. When the ten frame fills up, it is clear to see that it is time to rename the 10 ones as 1 group of 10.

At this point, we like to see students feeling comfortable with adding and renaming when using the 10’s and 1’s blocks. Some may mentally use “making 10” or adding the ones then tens methods. If they're able to do that in their head, continue to check in by asking them to do a few problems with base ten blocks first. For those who are wanting to use their fingers or hundreds chart, focus on helping them build confidence using the base ten blocks. This will lead to stronger fluency in the long run.

Wisdom Wonder Project would like to thank Cana Creative for their willingness to take on the huge little project of
filming our Singapore Math video series. Their videography skills, production, and custom music were the perfect fit for
the whimsical flair that we wanted for our math videos. It was important to us to keep production local, and we are honored to work with this wonderful group of locals making beautiful videos for our community on the Central Coast of California.
WWP would also like to thank Lisa Ann Dillon for her oversight and mentorship on the math curriculum and for
her vision for how to capture it on film. We're so proud that this project has finally come to fruition and that through this
incredible team we get to share our love for learning math with children all around the world.
Lastly, we need to thank our shining star, the adorable face and incredibly smart brain behind our Primary Level 1 Singapore Math video series, Mrs. Amy Houser. You are the Math Queen and our resident (albeit reluctant) video star,
and we could not have made this series without you.
