Start Here: Math Assessment

Every new Math journey normally starts with the Math Assessment. It gathers evidence about strengths, prerequisite gaps and readiness so STEM Lantern can recommend the appropriate starting pathway.

After staff review, your family receives a personalized assessment report. It brings the available evidence together and makes clear where more evidence is needed.

  • Strengths

    Skills supported by the assessment evidence.

  • Developing areas / prerequisite gaps

    Where supported by the available evidence.

  • Working levels / strand summary

    A picture of current learning across assessed strands.

  • Areas where more evidence is needed

    Uncertainty stays visible; further checks may be recommended.

  • Recommended starting point / next steps

    Staff-reviewed guidance for your child’s next learning steps.

Students are not simply placed according to school grade. We start from what your child knows and is ready to learn next.

Checking current assessment availability and pricing…

A clear starting point for your child’s Math learning.

Help with a Math Assessment

The assessment is complimentary with qualifying paid MathCode Fusion and MathCode Mastery enrolments, including Coding-only plans. Free and paid trials do not include this benefit.

What happens next?

  1. Assessment

    Understand strengths, gaps and readiness.

  2. Pathway Recommendation

    An instructor recommends the appropriate academic starting pathway.

  3. Personalized Learning Plan

    Build a plan around your child’s next steps and goals.

Three Math Pathways

Your assessment helps us recommend a starting pathway. Primary academic pathways are Math Essentials and Advanced Math. Competition Math is an optional specialized track that can complement either one.

PRIMARY PATHWAY

Math Essentials

Master the mathematics your child needs for school.

Current pathway registration and pricing are unavailable. Ask our team about next steps after assessment.

1 × 60-minute session/week

Math Essentials helps students strengthen foundational skills, close prerequisite gaps, reinforce what they are learning in school, and build lasting confidence. Instruction begins with what the student actually knows, not simply the grade printed on their report card.

  • ✅Need reinforcement on current school topics
  • ✅Have gaps from earlier grades
  • ✅Want stronger fundamentals and lasting understanding
  • ✅Need homework or test support where offered
  • ✅Are keeping up but want deeper clarity

Repair gaps → reconnect to current school mathematics → progress.

PRIMARY PATHWAY

Advanced Math

Go deeper. Faster. Further.

Current pathway registration and pricing are unavailable. Ask our team about next steps after assessment.

2 × 60-minute sessions/week

Advanced Math is not simply extra worksheets or harder questions from the same grade. Students work with reasoning, connections, applications, and challenging problems. Different strands can sit at different levels; for example, a student may work above grade in algebra while still strengthening another area.

  • ✅Deeper — Beyond procedures into reasoning, connections, applications, and challenging mathematical problems.
  • ✅Faster — Students who demonstrate mastery do not have to wait for the normal classroom pace before progressing.
  • ✅Further — Students may move beyond their current grade level into later mathematics when prerequisites and readiness support it.

SPECIALIZED TRACK

Competition Math

Think beyond ordinary school problems.

Current pathway registration and pricing are unavailable. Ask our team about next steps after assessment.

2 × 60-minute sessions/week

Competition Math develops non-routine problem-solving skills used in mathematics contests, including logical reasoning, number theory, combinatorics, geometry, spatial reasoning, pattern recognition, strategy, and mathematical justification.

It is a separate reasoning pathway and can combine with Math Essentials or Advanced Math where appropriate. Preparation supports local, national, and international mathematics competitions.

How Progress Is Measured

Progress is not measured only by hours attended. STEM Lantern tracks learning evidence so instruction stays matched to your child.

Skills Mastered

STEM Lantern tracks which skills your child has shown they can use reliably.

Growth From Assessment

Progress is measured from the starting picture created by the Math assessment, not hours attended alone.

Retention

Previously learned skills are checked again so knowledge stays usable over time.

Independence and Support

Instructors note how much guidance is needed as your child works through new material.

Progress Toward Goals

The learning path adapts as evidence changes so instruction stays aimed at your child's goals.

K–12 Coverage

The same STEM Lantern Mathematics system supports students from Kindergarten and Grade 1 through Grade 12. Learning is personalized to readiness while staying aligned with Saskatchewan mathematics expectations.

A math tutor in Saskatoon should meet your child where they are. STEM Lantern maps skills across the full Grades K–12 math journey so personalized math instruction can move at the right pace for each learner.

  • Number sense and operations
  • Fractions and decimals
  • Ratios and proportional reasoning
  • Algebra
  • Geometry and measurement
  • Functions
  • Statistics and probability
  • Pre-calculus
  • Calculus and advanced senior mathematics where appropriate

Start with a Math Assessment

The Math Assessment, also called the Math Diagnostic & Placement, identifies your child’s strengths, gaps and readiness. It gives the instructor a starting picture before recommending Math Essentials or Advanced Math, with Competition Math alongside where appropriate.

  1. Book the assessment and complete the diagnostic with our team.
  2. Review the results and recommended starting pathway with an instructor.
  3. Choose a weekly program or flexible plan and begin personalized instruction.

The standalone assessment is a one-time purchase. It may be complimentary for the same child with a qualifying paid, active MathCode Fusion or Mastery enrolment; eligibility is checked during registration.

Choose the Learning Format That Fits Your Family

Choose an ongoing Math program or a flexible plan that includes Math. Your assessment and instructor recommendation help you start with Math Essentials or Advanced Math. Competition Math is a complementary track for contest problem-solving.

MathCode Fusion and MathCode Mastery can include Math, Coding, or both. When Math is included, that plan supplies the weekly Math sessions; a separate Math Essentials, Advanced Math, or Competition Math enrolment is not required. Students use the same STEM Lantern Math curriculum.

Explorer Track

Math Programs FAQ

What is the difference between Math Essentials and Advanced Math?

Math Essentials focuses on the mathematics your child needs for school: closing gaps, reinforcing current topics, and building strong fundamentals. Advanced Math goes deeper into reasoning and applications, moves faster when mastery is shown, and can progress further into later mathematics when readiness supports it.

Can my child work above their school grade?

Yes, when assessment evidence and prerequisite skills show readiness. Placement follows what your child knows, not only the grade on their report card. Different strands can sit at different levels.

What happens if the assessment finds gaps from earlier grades?

Those gaps become part of the learning map. Instructors repair missing prerequisites first, then reconnect your child to current school mathematics so progress is durable.

Is Competition Math the same as Advanced Math?

No. Competition Math is a separate reasoning pathway for non-routine contest-style problem solving. It can complement Math Essentials or Advanced Math; it does not replace your child's primary academic Math pathway.

Can my child take both Math and Coding?

Yes. Flexible plans such as MathCode Fusion and MathCode Mastery can include Math, Coding, or both through selected weekly sessions. Your plan provides the weekly Math sessions; assessment and instructor placement identify whether Math Essentials or Advanced Math fits your child. Both plans use the same STEM Lantern Math curriculum.

Do you support high-school mathematics?

Yes. STEM Lantern Mathematics supports learners through Grade 12, including senior topics such as functions, pre-calculus, and calculus where appropriate.

Is the program aligned with Saskatchewan mathematics?

Yes. Instruction is aligned with Saskatchewan mathematics expectations while remaining personalized to each learner's skill map and readiness.
