Singapore Math syllabus is developed around the idea that learning to problem-solve through higher order or critical thinking and developing keen analytic is the key factors to being successful in math. The development of mathematical problem-solving ability is dependent on five inter-related components which are, understanding of concepts, development of skills, processes and internalising information,
