Description

Help your child discover the “magic” of math by enrolling them in our math camp. This class is different from a typical math class as it focuses on problem-solving skills that help students discover their own mathematical abilities and learn to appreciate how math can help them in the real world. During the course students will work on problems both individually and in teams in an effort to solve complex math problems through a variety of math games that are fun, challenging and inspirational.Students will not only learn to effectively multiply, divide. they will be introduced to algebraic concepts that help them learn math conceptually. The class takes a gradual approach of exposing students from conceptually easy problems to progressively more complex problems. Not only will their math skills improve but they will be inspired to learn and enjoy math on a level they may not have experienced in the past. During our time together students will have the chance to participate in a variety of math contests that challenge them to apply the skills they are learning. Students who so choose can choose to participate in semi-annual Noetic Learning Math Contests (NLMC) for elementary & middle school students which we will let our families know about. In the end, the goal of our program is to help students develop their problem solving skills, enhance their enjoyment of math and to inspire them to excel in math as time goes on. There will also be an portion of the class dedicated to math games, where we play games that will teach an aspect of math! Students are expected to work on problems from Noetic as well as play math games during the camp.
