Junior Coders Series
The Junior Coders Series is designed specifically for ages 5 - 7.
We believe that being good in math not only helps the students' school grades, but it also serves them well in cognitive development. Math trains students to think analytically and critically, allowing them to reason logically in problem solving.

Opportunity for exposure at ages 5-7
We see the opportunity to exposure pre-school children who are just about to begin their academic journey to logic and spatial thinking. Spatial thinking refers to the ability to rotate, reflect, and scale 3D objects mentally. These abilities are predictive of future mathematical ability.
As pre-school children are just starting to experiment with logical reasoning, we have structured the Junior Coders to reinforce fundamental coding logic and math concepts.
