Curiosity first
Every lesson opens with a question, puzzle or real-world problem that makes kids want to find the answer.
XCurio Academy is a math learning centre in North York, Toronto, for students in Grades 1 to 6. We blend the Ontario Curriculum with the teaching methods of Singapore Math, because every child can love math once they understand why it works.
To spark every child’s curiosity and turn it into lasting confidence and excellence in math.
Curiosity is where real learning starts. When children feel safe to wonder, question and try, they don’t just earn better grades. They begin to see themselves as people who can figure things out.
Three ideas guide every lesson, in every grade.
Every lesson opens with a question, puzzle or real-world problem that makes kids want to find the answer.
Every concept moves from Concrete to Pictorial to Abstract: students handle it, draw it, then write it, so the symbols make sense when they arrive.
With up to 12 students per class, instructors really know each student: what excites them, where they need support and how to stretch them.
Our classrooms at 2454 Bayview Ave are set up for small groups, hands-on activities and plenty of questions.
