Course Description:
课程描述:
Welcome to Math! This course aims to strengthen students’ problem-solving skills with math
tools that they likely already learned at school. We will play math games, go through math concepts, and do math contest problems. The math concepts we will cover are from Volume 1 of AMC (American Mathematics Competitions) 8 Preparation by mymathcounts.com. We will use math contest problems both from this book and from past AMC 8 contests as well as past MOEMS (Math Olympia for Elementary and Middle School Students) and the Math League Contests.
The elementary school level (grade 3-6) students in this class will be entered into the MOEMS (Math Olympia for Elementary and Middle School Students) contests as a team. We do not have a team for the middle school division of MOEMS or for other math contests. Interested parents and students can consult the following webpages for opportunities for other math contests:
MOEMS: https://moems.org/enroll/
