• Whole Numbers: Students work with whole numbers up to 10 million, including operations, number patterns, and divisibility rules.
• Fractions: This includes operations with fractions, mixed numbers, and improper fractions, as well as problem-solving involving fractions.
• Decimals: Students learn about decimal place values up to three decimal places, perform operations with decimals, and convert between fractions and decimals.
• Percentage: This topic covers the concept of percentage, converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages, and solving percentage problems.
• Ratio: Students learn about ratios and proportions, simplifying ratios, and solving problems involving ratios.
• Speed: This topic introduces the concept of speed, calculating speed, distance, and time, and solving word problems related to speed.
• Algebra: Students are introduced to algebraic expressions, simplifying expressions, and solving simple algebraic equations.

Measurement and Geometry

This branch focuses on various aspects of measurement and geometric properties.

• Area and Perimeter: Students calculate the area and perimeter of various 2D shapes, including rectangles, squares, triangles, parallelograms, and trapezoids.
• Volume: This includes calculating the volume of cubes and cuboids, and solving problems related to volume.
• Angles: Students learn about different types of angles, measuring angles, and constructing angles.
• Shapes and Properties: This covers the properties of 2D and 3D shapes, including triangles, quadrilaterals, circles, cubes, cuboids, and prisms.
• 2D/3D Representation: Students learn to represent 3D shapes in 2D and vice versa.
• Circles: This includes calculating the circumference and area of circles.

Statistics

This branch deals with data analysis and interpretation.
