Building foundational numeracy through exploration, reasoning, and collaborative problem-solving.
Nova Maths is a four-lesson numeracy course (approx. 12 hours) designed to build confidence in essential arithmetic operations and pattern recognition for students aged 11–14. It supports learners who may have missed key foundations in their education, offering an accessible, practical path into deeper mathematical thinking.
In disrupted educational environments, learners often miss key stages of math development – leading to long-term gaps in understanding and confidence. Nova Maths addresses this directly by offering a focused, engaging re-entry point into numeracy.
Designed for students aged 11–14, the course is: simple in structure (four lessons) but high in engagement, culturally and linguistically accessible and rooted in number fluency, not abstract theory.
Rather than rushing through curriculum benchmarks, Nova Maths helps students rediscover how numbers work and why they matter. Through logic puzzles, patterns, and applied reasoning, learners build back both competence and trust in their own mathematical abilities.
Students completing Nova Maths will:
Strengthen core number skills: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
Recognize and extend numeric patterns
Apply reasoning to real-world and puzzle-based scenarios
Develop confidence and interest in math through structured exploration
Exploring number patterns and numerical relationships
Practicing the four operations in different contexts
Applying quantitative reasoning to solve structured problems
Using logic and creative thinking to solve number puzzles
