On Wednesday, Marshall attended his first Mathletics competition. He was chosen to represent his school for the competition and competed with two other students. He loved the opportunity and learned so much from the experience. He already has strategies planned for next time. Sterling and I enjoyed watching Marshall celebrate with his team when the answers were announced. The whole family can't wait for the next Mathletics event( even Sydney and Moriah had a great time)!
What is Mathletics?
Mathletics is a 15 problem competition that focuses on problem solving. Students work in groups of three to solve problems within a specific amount of time. Points are earned for each problem solved; sometimes one answer is needed for the next problem. The team with the most points is the winner.
There are four regular contests during the school year. Competitions end with a regional contest.
