Aligned with principles from the Science of Learning, the Jubilee Mathematics Block is structured around three key components designed to build strong conceptual understanding, procedural fluency and long-term retention.

1.     Number Fact Fluency

Students engage in regular practice to develop automatic recall of essential number facts. This includes addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Building fluency reduces cognitive load, allowing students to devote more working memory to problem solving and higher-order mathematical thinking.

2.     Daily Review

Daily review strengthens retrieval of previously taught concepts and skills. Through structured recall and brief problem sets, students revisit prior learning, reinforce connections between topics and consolidate knowledge in long-term memory.

3. Core Lesson Structure

The main lesson is built around three instructional pillars that support effective learning and gradual release of responsibility:

• Explicit Instruction (I Do, We Do, You Do): Teachers model new learning, guide students through supported practice and then provide opportunities for independent application.

• Concrete–Pictorial–Abstract (CPA) Model: Students move from hands-on materials (concrete) to visual representations (pictorial), and finally to symbolic mathematical notation (abstract).
