Primary 3 Syllabus

Aligned with the latest 2025 Singapore MOE Math syllabus and endorsed by Education Alliance of Finland.
Hundreds of hours of learning content for all topics covered in P3 to get your child build a strong Math foundation!

Overview

In P3, your child will expand their problem-solving toolbox by learning heuristics, such as drawing diagrams and looking for patterns.

If your childโ€™s foundation is weak, they will struggle. Soon, they dread doing their homework or going to class.

They are afraid that they canโ€™t keep up.

With Practicle, they can!

First, our platform will use AI to personalise our questions to match your childโ€™s current ability.

Then, over time, as your child improves, weโ€™ll give them tougher questions.

Even if the class has moved on, they can continue to build their skills.

Thatโ€™s the beauty of self-paced learning.

Our syllabus is 100% aligned with MOE and is certified by the Education Alliance of Finland (EAF) for educational quality and effectiveness.
