The Matarus math curriculum is in line with what is typical for North American school boards. Topics are introduced, and then in subsequent grades, built upon. This repetition and return to foundations build strong mathematical reasoning skills. Note that themes often continue for many years, so the theme will often contain material that is both well above and well below grade level but your child will be levelled to the math that is right for them within the theme.
