From accounting to zoology, to carpentry, to simply balancing a check book, strong math skills are fundamental requirements for success in life. Dreamcatcher's unique one-to-one teaching approach, combined with an efficient, carefully sequenced curriculum will foster math proficiency in learners of all ages.

Fundamentals of Math - Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division

Typical Student: 3rd grade through adult learners who can't remember math facts, get confused working with 2-digit divisor problems, add when solving a subtraction story problem, don't borrow when they should, and have general difficulty with mathematics.
Students will learn:

100 basic addition, subtraction, or multiplication facts
90 basic division facts
To read and write numbers into the thousands
To solve addition and subtraction problems involving 4-digit numbers with carrying and borrowing
To solve multiplication problems involving 3-digit numbers times 2-digit numbers
To solve division problems involving dividing a 5-digit number by a 2-digit number with remainders
Discrimination between addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division story problems
To deal with numbers that have zero, one, or more than one
To identify digits belonging to the ones, tens, hundreds, or thousands columns

Students will leave each program able to retain facts, understand place value, solve computational problems, discriminate between various types of story problems, and accurately translate story problems into numerical statements.

Fundamentals of Math - Basic Fractions

Typical Student: 4th grade through adult learners who are learning, or had trouble learning, advanced mathematics skills such as basic fractions.
Students will learn:

To add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers with common denominators
To multiply fractions, whole numbers, and mixed numbers
How to convert some fractions to numbers and numbers to fractions
How to tell if a fraction is more than, less than, or equal to one
How to convert mixed numbers to fractions
To find equivalent fractions

Students will leave Fundamentals of Math - Basic Fractions with a firm understanding of basic fraction relationships and operations.

Fundamentals of Math - Fractions, Decimals, and Percents

Typical Student: 4th grade through adult learners who are learning, or had trouble learning, advanced mathematics skills such as fractions, decimals, and percents.
Students will learn:

To add, subtract, multiply and divide any fractions and mixed numbers
How to reduce any improper fractions
To find the largest in a series of fractions
To find equivalent fractions
To add, subtract, multiply and divide any decimal numbers
How to work back and forth between fractions, decimals, and percents

Students will leave this program proficient in the relationships between and operations of fractions, decimals, and percents.

Fundamentals of Math - Ratios and Equations

Typical Student: 4th grade through adult learners who are learning, or had trouble learning, advanced mathematics skills such as ratios and equations.
Students will understand:

The procedure for changing any number into any other number by multiplying
How each number in a ratio (a pair of fractions) is related to each other number

Students will leave this program with a firm understanding of ratios and basic equations and their application to story problems.

Transitional Math

Typical Student: 6th grade through adult learners who have mastered the concepts of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, but lack further knowledge of math and how the concepts relate to one another.
Students will learn:

Whole number operations and relations (multiplication/division and inverse operations)
Fractions (operations, mixed numbers, equivalence, simplifying, and common denominators)
Number families and extensions (whole numbers, tables, fraction number families)
Decimals and percents (decimal relationships, rounding, percents)
Estimation
Problem solving (classification number families, comparison number families, number family tables, inverse operations, ratios and proportions, and ratio tables)
Geometry (perimeter, area, lines and angles, circles, and the coordinate system)

Students will be proficient at basic math operations having to do with division, fractions, decimals, percents, and geometry. They will have reasons to feel good about their ability to do math.
