Book Introduction
Canadian Math Classrooms with No Dropouts - How Canadian Elementary School Students Enjoy Math

A fascinating story about Canadian math classrooms, told by the author, who has an in-depth understanding of Canadian public education as a parent and teacher.
The biggest difference from Korean math education is the 'method of approaching math'. This vividly shows the Canadian math classroom environment to see how Canadian children approach math and enjoy it.

You can learn about various ways to express numbers, basic arithmetic operations, decimals and fractions, shapes and units, and problem-solving processes, along with English expressions actually used in class.
Meanwhile, you can get a glimpse of Canadian school life through various events held throughout the year.


Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of Canadian math classrooms, where students focus on problem-solving processes and language skills rather than fast, repetitive calculations, and emphasize understanding principles and expanding concepts rather than mere memorization.

Into the book
This book was written by an author who has lived in Canada for 15 years and has experienced Canadian public education from both a parent and a teacher's perspective.


Unlike Korea, where there are many children who hate math or give up on it early, to the point where the term "math dropout" has been coined, despite the high level of math ability, the differences between Korea and Canada, where there are many children who love math, are introduced from the perspective of "learning methods."


This book tells the story of Canadian math classes, which prioritize understanding the problem-solving process and principles, expanding concepts, and emphasizing language skills over simple calculation skills, along with various episodes from school.

Publisher's Review
*The core of Canadian math education: One of the reasons Canadian children love math is because of the 'learning method'.
The core of Canadian mathematics education is to focus on problem-solving processes and language skills rather than simple calculation skills, and to emphasize understanding principles rather than memorization.


*Actually Used English Expressions: You can learn about various ways to express numbers, arithmetic operations, decimals and fractions, shapes and units, and problem-solving processes, along with English expressions actually used in class.


*A Glimpse into a Year in Canadian Schools: Explore the diverse events that take place throughout the year at Canadian schools, offering learning experiences that extend beyond the classroom.

This book provides particularly useful information for parents and teachers who want to glimpse the landscape and secrets of Canadian math classrooms without dropouts, children who are curious about how to express math in English, and readers interested in elementary math education.
