The e-themes - Mathematics Proficiency Development Tool identifies the essential mathematical skills for which students in pre-school level will be held accountable. They are considered essential for success at the next grade level. Pre-school educators/parents? should use this set of materials and concepts as a foundation for their basic mathematics programmes.

The Mathematics Proficiency Guide presents a view of mathematics teaching and learning which integrates the processes of mathematical activity and content. Sample problems and activities promote constant interaction between content and process. The set consists of books, playing toys, software and workbooks. It is through the use of mathematical processes (problem-solving, communication, reasoning, connections, and technology) that students develop proficiency with mathematical content and the confidence in their own abilities to master more difficult mathematical concepts.

The teaching and learning of mathematics must become more discovery-oriented, inquiry-based, and problem-centered if students are to develop understanding of and about mathematics. e-themes - Mathematics Proficiency Development Tool allows learners to concentrate on making mathematical connections and using principles of mathematics to communicate, reason, and solve problems. Students engage in projects which require them to apply number systems, operations, and forms in real-world contexts.

The learner will be able to apply number bond to demonstrate the following algebraic concepts: quantities, addition and subtraction 1-20.
