General Information
Math Challenge is a set of fifteen challenges published approximately every two weeks. The goal of Math Challenge is to enrich the school curriculum and to encourage different ways of problem solving. This is a fantastic opportunity for families to be involved and enjoy math through fun and engaging word problems. We encourage parents and siblings to get involved in discussing and solving them.
Throughout the challenges, the program covers problem solving strategies such as drawing a picture or model, making an organized list, looking for a pattern, working backward, and guessing and checking. Each challenge presents 18 problems. The first half of the problems are suitable for younger students (K-3). The level of difficulty increases with each problem.
***All students K to 5th Grade are invited to participate. Math Challenge is free and no sign up is necessary.***
