Parent Testimonial

My son has attended The Phoenix Schools since we relocated in October of 2006. Before enrolling him in the school I toured several others and none of them were as clean, warm and welcoming as this one. The class structure and curriculums are ideal and yet still fun for my child. They also really now how to keep the parents very much involved; there isn't a season that goes by without planned activities and/ or field trips. As a single parent without family in the area, I can honestly say The Phoenix Schools makes my life a lot easier because I know that my son is well cared for, happy and safe while I am at work. The staff is competent and kind, the facility clean, the meals are healthy and there is a balance of learning and fun. As a parent I couldn't ask for any more!

Math Their Way is an activity-centered, child-friendly manipulative math program. Math Their Way is designed to help children develop an understanding of and insight into the patterns of mathematics.

This program introduces mathematical concepts to children through a hands-on approach. Everyday materials such as shells, blocks and bottle caps are used in a myriad of ways to make mathematical concepts come alive. Children love to help by collecting these items for patterning, sorting and classifying. Children also learn math skills by working with more complex items such as Unifix Cubes, linking chains, pattern blocks, attribute tiles and portion cups with their daily math activities.

Free exploration, patterning, sorting, classifying, counting, comparing and graphing are part of our early years math program. Each month, children will engage in thoughtfully planned activities designed to strengthen their problem-solving and reasoning skills. These early experiences will give children confidence in their ability to use mathematics. By freely exploring the math stations, children will develop an understanding and ownership of the math they are doing.

Math Their Way has proven to be a fun and successful program that gives children the vital foundation needed for future learning and success in mathematics.
