Spring Enrichment: Online Math Circles

Math circles originated in the 1930s and now exist in most places around the world. Students will get creative when investigating problems that are “easy to pose, challenging to solve, require connections among several concepts and techniques, and lead to significant math ideas."

Sections:

• Grade 3/4 Math Circle Problem-Solving Club
• Grade 5/6 Math Circle Problem-Solving Club
• Grade 7/8 Math Circle Problem-Solving Club

Additional Virtual High-School Programs offered this Spring:
