Mission Statement
JUMP Math's mission is to help all children achieve their full potential by encouraging a deep understanding and a love of math in students and educators, as well as to use math as a means to build the social and emotional skills required for long term academic and life success. And, by demonstrating that all students can achieve demonstrable academic success, we seek to change the way society thinks about potential, in general.
About This Cause
Founded in 1998 by Dr. John Mighton, JUMP Math is an award-winning charity with a mission to nurture the potential in all children by encouraging a deep understanding and a love of math. We develop evidence-based classroom resources for grades K-8, aligned with the provincial curriculum; paired with customized professional development, coaching and in-class support. JUMP Math provides teachers with an effective way to overcome the academic hierarchies that can discourage lower-achieving students. Our approach helps teachers reduce difficult concepts into manageable chunks and create an environment in which all students can experience success. By replacing math anxiety with an understanding and love of math, students develop the confidence to pursue increasingly challenging problems. All students possess great potential and our long-term goal is to shift the way society thinks about the potential of all of its members. JUMP Math reaches more than 170,000 students across Canada each year. Products and Services Overview JUMP Math develops K-8 classroom resources (Teacher Resources and Student Assessment & Practice Books) written by our in-house team of PhD-level mathematicians, all of whom have experience teaching and tutoring. Our highly experienced Outreach Team (all former teachers) delivers related professional development and coaching. All JUMP Math classroom resources are aligned to Canadian provincial curriculums (AB, BC, ON, MB and SK) and the US editions are aligned to the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics.
