Mathematics
Del Mar Pines believes that mathematics education should focus students on discovering, discussing, and thinking in an analytical, deductive and logical manner.
From kindergarten, small (five to eight children), developmentally-appropriate groups are established, in which students receive up to 5 hours of weekly math instruction. The School employs no grade level barriers. Students who demonstrate expertise of current grade level math standards are advanced to a higher grade-level program.
Kindergarten students begin the mathematics process using manipulatives, discovering numbers and patterns, and progressing through place values, basic graphing and the solution of simple equations.
