Logic-Based and Strategic Problem Solving -- Week 2 Prep

I was amazed by the diligence of the children this week. Almost every student completed the full-length practice test. Many of them came to class with questions that they could not understand even after reading the explanation. This is the most important step in the improvement process. Each week they will improve on their strategic approach to problem solving.

Dear Kindergarten Mathlete Parents:

Logic-Based Problem Solving Math Competition (first week of prep)

This week, I introduced the children to the Learning Math Competition which is taken by over 25,000 student from 602 schools nationwide. The will test them in binary operations, geometry, algebra, probability and logical thinking.

Cubic and Square Numbers and Multiples of 9 — Four in a Row Game and Sum of Cubes = Triangular Squares

After studying square and cubic numbers, to bring it all together, I created a game that combines these two sequences of numbers and introduces a third sequence of numbers: multiples of 9.

Cubes, Jackson Origami — First 12 Cubic Numbers — Midpoints

After spending weeks exploring the wonders of squares and square numbers, the natural extension from two dimensional figures is the study of cubes.
