Kids will build upon the foundational concepts learned over the last school year gaining experience in problem-solving techniques used for competition style math. They will gain confidence and fluency in their understanding of mathematical concepts as they work on logical reasoning and problem-solving skills. "Campers" will work both individually and collaboratively in a small group setting using problem sets that Alissa Helgesen has adapted from previous Kangaroo Math competitions (2nd and 3rd grades) and Math Olympiad (Grades 4 to 6). Because it's summer kids will learn new math games to keep it fun and interesting! "Lexy" Hanley will teach Grades 2 and 3. Alissa Helgesen will teach Grades 4 and 5/6. Teachers will be assisted by interns who will oversee collaborate breakout rooms.
Class Size: 12 to 16 depending on grade. $250
