WES MATH CHALLENGE PROGRAM

All students in grades K-6 are invited to participate in the Math Challenge at Wrightstown Elementary School. The program is completely FREE, and no sign-up is necessary. This is a great opportunity for families to be involved and enjoy math through fun and engaging math problems. We encourage parents and siblings to get involved in discussing and solving the problems.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE:

1. Print out the current Math Challenge here. Neatly write your first and last name, grade, and teacher at the top of your paper
2. Solve as many problems as you can. Be sure to pay attention to the minimum number of problems required for your grade. Remember, you can discuss and solve the problems with parents, siblings, and friends!
3. Submit your papers, with solutions, by the due date (FIRST THING Wednesday morning prior to the due date) to Mrs. Kane’s room (D-10).
4. Check online Friday after 3:00 PM to see the answers.

Mrs. Kane will keep track of your submissions. Recognition will be given at certain points throughout the year for those who regularly participate!  Questions? Please contact Mrs. Kane at alaforgia@crsd.org.
