Math in Action

Class description:

Math in Action class is designed to provide additional time for students to explore the fascinating subject of math. The success of the program will rely heavily on its participants. While most students will benefit from this program, students who commit to positive thinking and participation will benefit the most.

Math in Action is an enrichment program, NOT a tutoring program. Students must be self-motivated and ready to learn and participate.  There will be weekly assignments, and students are responsible to complete them on time. Assignment may take about one hour per week.

Class starts on December 2, 2011 through April 27, 2012.

Class meets on Fridays afterschool from 3 to 4:30 p.m. There is no class when there is no school.

Location: Room 120

Fee: $50 (all materials and competitions fees are included)

Coaches notes:

The class is fun and enriching yet it requires hard work and commitment.  The MIA Fourth grade class will focus on math topics and practices that prepare students for math competitions. Students will work independently as well as in teams.
All interested students are invited to take a diagnostic test on November 18 at the Library from 3:10-4:00PM. Qualified students will be asked to join the class and will represent Rockwell Fourth Grade at math competitions.

They will be attending two competitions (Math Kangaroo and Math is Cool).
