After the Mathletes became experts at plotting coordinate points in either 1 or 4 quadrants, I created a game that would allow them to plot three points to create a triangle and then classify it as either acute, obtuse, or right and then classify it as either scalene or isosceles.

The most important three factors in real estate (buying property) is location, location, location. The same is true of coding images on a computer. Every pixel has a specific location ordered by a horizontal (x) and vertical (y) axis.

Each child followed my best practices by completing all or most of the 20 questions in the practice test, self-graded and identified the few questions that they still wanted to master. We spent the first part of class reviewing these problems and my best practices approach. 

We are working on strategies to solve challenging logic word-problems leading up to the Noetic Learning Math Contest (NLMC). The NLMC  is a semiannual problem solving contest for elementary and middle school students including tens of thousands of children worldwide.

This game is challenging at every level from K-5th grade. The first square must be given and every other square after that is a binary operation (+-x/) (plus, minus, times, and division) and ^ (exponent and square root. Also, the last square is given.
