• Icon Series: Numeracy for Kindergarten 2

    Age Range: 3 – 5 years

    Icon Numeracy is a series of three books, namely:

    • Numeracy for Nursery (Ages 3 and 4)
    • Numeracy for KG 1
    • Numeracy for KG 2

    Each of the books was carefully prepared to cater for the need of learners at the foundation level. The books have been well prepared to meet the Standards-based Curriculum by the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA) in 2019. Young learners were particularly paid attention to, so they have the full benefits of these books, and prepare them adequately into the world of mathematics.

    The Numeracy for KG 2 was carefully extracted from the KG Curriculum to help young learners have the requisite understanding of the basic concepts, and to enable them to move to the upper classes with ease. Besides, the language has been kept brief in both the rubrics, headings and explanation of concepts to enable the young learners to read after a little guide by teacher. The books have been divided into 7 strands, namely:

    1. Number: Counting, Representation and Cardinality
    2. Number Operations: Addition and Subtraction
    3. Patterns and Relationships
    4. Geometry
    5. Measurement
    6. Motion or Position
    7. Handling Data

    Each of the Strands (Topics) has been expanded with enough exercises to help the learner grasp the concepts. The books are activity-based and learners have the opportunity to express themselves as they learn. Group work has also been given to enable learners work in groups while learning about teamwork and communication, and collaboration.

    What makes the series easy to use, fun and exciting is the design of the book with some beautiful toys that excite the learners at this level. The books breathe enough to keep learners very active while using them. By the time learners are through with the series, they will be well-equipped with the core competencies as explained in this new standards-based curriculum.

    Learners, teachers and parents will find the series very interesting to use.

  • Icon Series: Phonics for Nursery

This is to further test whether learners have learnt the sounds well. The variety of activities make it fun for learners and help them to further remember the sounds.
