Singapore Mighty Math and Singapore Mighty Science: Fun Ways to Learn

This is good news for the “*kiasu” moms out there. Singapore Mighty Math and the Singapore Mighty Science are now in the Philippines. Super thanks to The Great Leap Academy for bringing them here.

The Singapore Math program is becoming famous around the world. In fact, many schools are now adapting the Singapore Math in their curriculum. The framework and methods of teaching are so different that it results in getting consistent top ranking scores of its students in Singapore. The teaching style is significantly different over the traditional math curriculum.


Why Singapore Mighty Math?

The development is progressive and appropriate for children. Children learn more using visualization. The teaching method of the Singapore math first comes with the topic presentation and then followed by visual, abstract progression. The concept is being explained first before they are being taught how to do Math. One reason most Singaporeans ranked first in the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study. Amazingly, some US schools even followed the same teaching method to improve their Math standards. 

Mighty Math teachers here in the Philippines were personally trained by experts from Singapore. Adapting this kind of teaching would be a great relief to you because you need not re-translate the topic to your child. Your child would definitely enjoy the learning process as he progresses through series of stimulating fun activities (not just worksheets) developed appropriately to their speed and ability. Let us say that in this learning method, no child is left behind!


Is your kid ready for a fun scientific challenge? Then this is the right one for him or her. Singapore Mighty Science is one great way to teach children about science and its relevance in the world they live in. What is the significance of science? Are we able to explain to our kids how science got into our lives? Understanding won’t be that hard for the student if we know how to explain about how the human lives relate to science. 

Just like Singapore math, the Singapore Mighty Science is an extraordinary learning system that combines sophisticated Project Based Learning (PBL) methodology with the inherent excitement of hands-on manipulatives to engage and motivate the minds of the students. Students will not just learn scientific principles, they will also create their own science models, robots and objects that move, and find their own way around obstacles. Through this, they understand science and sharpen their analytical skills in a fun way. Students will surely learn alot! 

Each student will have its own science and robotics kit. The Singapore Mighty Science structured lesson will guide them how to use remote controls, motors, and IR sensors. Each student is expected to build at least 8 guided science projects which they can take home.

The Great Leap Academy has been recognized for its international academic and artistic enrichment programs. The center has handpicked the introduction of singapore math and the singapore science to appropriately structure the mental ability and practical skills of your child. Learning is not just information. As we say, we all learn from experience. How do you think you should manage your child’s imagination to explore and invent?


*Kiasu is a slang term for moms in Singapore which means “competitive and afraid to lose out”. They do everything just to win. Are you a “kiasu” parent?
