"The learning resources created for the numeracy project include:
*a document that identifies a big idea in a curricular outcome, questions for classroom instruction for student assessment, sample answers shown concretely, pictorially and symbolically and connecting outcomes;
*reference documents that provide further information or resources;
*additional questions across multiple grades for each big idea found in a progression document; and,
short videos.
The numeracy project is a curriculum, instruction and assessment support for mathematics. The learning supports are aligned directly to Saskatchewan curricular outcomes."
Select the grade from the menu on the left to explore available documents. I suggest starting by watching the supporting video provided below the documents. The video provides background and information about the documents.
Select Progressions on the menu on the left to explore by theme. (Coming soon)
PLEASE NOTE THAT NEW RESOURCES WILL BE CONTINUED TO BE ADDED HERE THROUGHOUT THE 2022-23 SCHOOL YEAR. CHECK BACK REGULARLY!
Numeracy Tasks are designed to have students interact with mathematics in a way that is meaningful to them and that strengthens their understanding of mathematics and numbers in the world.
Activities are sorted by the following categories:
Primary (k-3)
Intermediate (4-6)
Junior High School (7-9)
Senior High School (10-12)
Tag Line: Challenging math problems worth solving
A collection of math problems that require some good thinking, and maybe a few attempts. The idea is to move beyond procedural understanding.
The collections are sorted from grades Kinder to High School (for common core standards in the US - but probably transfer well). The problems usually involve some blank spots which must be filled with numbers. In many of the problems you can not use a digit more than once.
Like similar sites that provide these problem style questions, you can submit your own to add to the collection.

Join over 20 million students, teachers, and parents using our free, curriculum-aligned math game for Grades 1 - 8.
Prodigy is a free, Pokemon-style math game that has been proven to improve student scores and confidence! It is aligned to the Ontario curriculum for grades 1-6, and features content from each of the five major strands.
Prodigy was designed with three primary goals in mind:
1. To create deep engagement so students double their math practice time at home.
2. To equip teachers with reports and assessment tools to inform their instruction.
3. To provide curriculum aligned content for free, regardless of a student’s demographic.
Teachers can create assignments and assessments, align them curriculum, and check in on progress. The program automatically adapts to students who are struggling or excelling, but teacher's also have the option to override grade levels to adapt and modify for individual students. Parents can connect and see what their child is working on, and students can access the program from any computer or tablet.
**NOTE - For FREE summer or at home access, ask your child's teacher to create an account!
Same But Different is a powerful routine for use in math classrooms. The activity of same but different is an activity where two things are compared, calling attention to both how they are the same and how they are different.
This apparent paradox is the beauty of the activity. It is important to notice the word BUT. Instead of making a choice – am I going to prove that these are the same or am I going to prove that they are different – students are considering how two items can be both. This is a critically important distinction.
Not same OR different, rather same BUT different.
There are categories for addition/subtraction, early numeracy, multiplication/division, measurement, place value, fractions, ratios, geometry, algebra, and high school math.
Same or Different? is a routine that provides students opportunities to construct arguments when comparing objects, such as numbers or shapes.
A routine like Same or Different? provides accessible opportunities for even youngest students to learn how to talk about various features of mathematical objects – quantity, shape, color, orientation, and arrangement, to name a few.

At Starfall, children have fun while they learn.
Starfall.com® opened in September 2002 as a free public service to teach children to read. Since then it has expanded to include language arts and mathematics for preschool, kindergarten, first grade, second grade, and third grade. Starfall’s emphasis on phonemic awareness, systematic sequential phonics, and common sight words in conjunction with audiovisual interactivity has proven effective in teaching emergent readers. Starfall activities are research-based and align with Individual and Common Core State Standards in English language arts and mathematics.
The program emphasizes exploration, play, and positive reinforcement—encouraging children to become confident and intrinsically motivated. Starfall is an educational alternative to other entertainment choices for children and is especially effective for special education, homeschooling, and English language development (ELD, ELL, ESL). It is widely used in schools that serve children with special needs and learning difficulties.
Our low-cost membership program expands the free content to include animated songs, mathematics, and reading activities spanning K-3. Membership also supports the production of new interactive games, movies, and more for both the Starfall.com website and Starfall apps for mobile devices.
