Built for Australian and NZ classrooms

Adaptive maths practice that
follows the Australian Curriculum.

The Australian Curriculum expects mathematical fluency to develop progressively from Foundation through Year 6. Adaptive practice — where difficulty adjusts to the child's actual performance — is the most efficient way to build that fluency without a fixed worksheet approach.

📊

Adapts to the individual student

Every student in a Foundation classroom is at a different point. Adaptive practice means each student works at their own level — not the class average — which makes it effective for both students ahead of year-level expectations and those who need more consolidation time.

🇦🇺

Australian English and metric contexts

Word problems use Australian English, AUD dollar amounts, and metric units (metres, kilometres, litres, kilograms). Students encounter familiar contexts — which reduces reading load and lets them focus on the mathematical reasoning.

📱

Works on school iPads and home devices

No app to download, no software to install. ZestMath runs in any browser on iPads, Chromebooks, Windows laptops, and mobile phones. No student account is needed — which makes it suitable for shared school devices and home use without parental setup.

Year-level overview

What each year level
should be practising.

F–1

Foundation & Year 1

Counting and subitising to 20, addition and subtraction within 20, number representations, simple shapes. Foundation focuses on developing number sense; Year 1 begins formal addition and subtraction strategies.

Y2–3

Years 2–3

Addition and subtraction to 1,000, introduction to multiplication as equal groups, simple fractions (halves, quarters, thirds). Year 3 introduces formal multiplication and division and extends fraction understanding.

Y4–5

Years 4–5

Multiplication table fluency (all facts to 10×10 expected by Year 4). Long multiplication, short division. Equivalent fractions, adding fractions with same denominator, decimals to hundredths. Area and perimeter.

Y6

Year 6

All fraction operations including unlike denominators. Percentage of quantities. Ratio introduction. Multi-step word problems. Negative numbers. Algebraic thinking (simple equations and patterns). Solid preparation for Year 7 transition.

FAQ

Questions from Australian & NZ parents and teachers

ZestMath's practice topics align to the Australian Curriculum Mathematics content strands: Number and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, and Statistics and Probability. Coverage is appropriate for Foundation through Year 6 proficiency expectations — fluency targets (e.g., multiplication facts by end of Year 4), conceptual understanding (fractions as parts of a whole), and problem-solving through word problems. The platform does not map to individual AC content descriptions by code, but topic coverage matches AC scope at each year level.
Yes. The NZ Curriculum's Mathematics and Statistics learning area covers the same foundational content as the Australian Curriculum at primary level — number strategies, fractions, basic algebra, measurement, and geometry. ZestMath practice is appropriate for NZ students from Year 1 through Year 6. NZ-specific terminology (e.g., 'maths' not 'math', Year rather than Grade) is used throughout.
Foundation (Prep in Victoria and Queensland, Kindergarten in NSW and WA, Reception in SA) is the first year of school in Australia. Foundation maths covers counting to and from 20, recognising numbers, simple addition and subtraction with small numbers, and basic shape recognition. ZestMath's easy difficulty level within addition and subtraction is appropriate for Foundation students.
Yes. Word problems use Australian dollars (AUD), metric units (kilometres, metres, centimetres, litres, kilograms), and contextually familiar Australian scenarios. This means students can focus on the mathematical reasoning rather than converting unfamiliar units or currencies.
Broadly yes — both the Australian Curriculum and the English National Curriculum expect multiplication table fluency to be established by the end of Year 4. The Australian Curriculum expects students to recall multiplication facts for single-digit numbers by end of Year 4, with extension to 12×12 typical in most states. ZestMath's adaptive times tables practice works within this expectation.
Yes. ZestMath requires no IT setup, no student accounts, and no school licence. A teacher opens ZestMath in a browser connected to a projector or interactive whiteboard and the class participates together. This is the most common classroom use — a 5-to-10-minute warm-up drill at the start of a maths lesson, with no preparation required.
ZestMath's content is in English and does not currently offer te reo Māori or Pasifika language versions. The mathematical content — number operations, fractions, measurement — is universal and appropriate for all NZ students. For language-specific support, ZestMath works best as a supplementary practice tool alongside classroom instruction in students' home languages.
