AI literacy for the AI generation

Montreal. Quebec City. Sherbrooke. Quebec is a global AI research powerhouse.

Quebec is home to one of the most important AI research ecosystems in the world. Mila — the Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute founded by Yoshua Bengio — employs hundreds of researchers and is the world's largest academic AI lab. Microsoft Research Montreal, Meta AI Research, Google Brain Montreal, and Samsung AI Lab are all based in the city. Ubisoft Montreal is the world's largest video game studio by revenue. The video game industry — EA, Ubisoft, Warner Bros. Games, Eidos — employs tens of thousands of engineers and artists using AI for game development. The mathematical reasoning behind all of these fields starts with what Chalky Math teaches.

🧠
Critical AI thinking

Kids learn to question and evaluate AI outputs — not just accept them as truth.

🔢
The math that makes AI work

Probability, statistics, functions — real foundations, not surface-level buzzwords.

Quebec-specific questions

What Quebec homeschool families ask us most.

Do I need to notify anyone to homeschool in Quebec?+
Yes. Quebec requires school board authorization before beginning home education (Education Act, s. 15–16). Your school board reviews your curriculum plan and must be satisfied that it is equivalent to the Quebec program. Annual evaluation by a competent person is also required — the school board may send an evaluator to assess your child's progress.
What subjects does Quebec require for homeschooling?+
Quebec's curriculum includes mathematics as a core subject at all grade levels. Chalky Math covers mathematics across Grades 1–8 comprehensively — providing rigorous, well-documented instruction that is equivalent to the Quebec mathematics program and satisfies school board review requirements.
Does Chalky Math meet Quebec homeschool requirements?+
Yes. Quebec requires curriculum equivalent to the provincial program and annual evaluation. Chalky Math's complete Grade 1–8 math sequence covers every major Quebec mathematics topic with built-in tracking — giving your school board the documented evidence of equivalent mathematical instruction they need at annual evaluation.
Do I need to be a math expert to use Chalky Math?+
Not at all. Every lesson is self-contained — your child reads, works through problems, and completes activities without you needing to explain concepts first. The curriculum handles the teaching; your job is to show up and stay curious alongside them.
Can we start at a grade other than Grade 1?+
Absolutely. Each grade is self-contained. Start where your child is — if they are working at a Grade 4 level, begin there. Many families jump in mid-curriculum and progress quickly.
