We offer an optional enrichment opportunity for students who want an extra challenge in the area of math. Students receive a packet of problems and solve 5 problems per week at home. On problem solving day (this year we will meet on Monday afternoons), students meet with Ms. Wick to discuss answers and share strategies. Students who participate are expected to try each of the problems and to record their strategies in a spiral notebook (one problem per page).
If your child does not participate in the more challenging problem solving group, she or he will still be problem solving in school with Ms. Cook. Problem solving topics will often relate to current topics in math class.
