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 3  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.
