Research shows that memorizing facts and procedures isn't enough for long-term math success. Students need strong number sense to build a foundation for mathematical understanding.  Number sense develops gradually as a result of exploring numbers, visualizing them in a variety of contexts, and relating them in ways that are not limited to traditional algorithms.  We want our young mathematicians to be flexible thinkers and confident problem solvers.
