General Information |
- Math Challenge is a new math enrichment opportunity for Randall Elementary students. It promotes critical thinking, encourages love for math, and provides bonding time for children and parents/guardians over math.
- This program is completely free and no sign-up is required.
- All grades K through 6 are encouraged to participate
- A total of 15 math challenges will be published throughout the school year (every other week).
- At this time, the challenges are only published in English. You can use online tools to translate or ask a friend or family member.
- Each challenge is designed to give students opportunities to sharpen their mathematical problem-solving skills.
- Through the challenges, the program addresses problem solving strategies such as draw a picture or model, make an organized list, look for a pattern, working backward, and guess and check.
- This is a great opportunity for families to be involved and enjoy math through fun and engaging math problems. We encourage parents and siblings to get involved in discussing and solving them.
