MATH SEMINAR

There is still time to join math seminar. We will have our second meeting tomorrow during lunch time. Bring your lunch to the math room. It's not too late to join!

Description:

Math Investigation Seminar Description


Who? Math Investigation Seminar is open to all students who would like to challenge themselves and explore new concepts of mathematics. Students should be prepared to take on high-level thinking and have fun with math!

What? Math Investigation Seminar is designed to supplement and extend the math curriculum, however, much of what we do in Seminar will look very different from what we do in math class. The topics in Math Seminar will revolve around reasoning, logic, and critical thinking skills as these are the building blocks of intellectual inquiry. The Seminar will focus on developing skills through problem solving, puzzles and exposure to a wide range of topics in mathematics. There will be about 30 minutes of homework weekly to be completed for the following seminar.

Where? We will meet in the BMS Middle School Math Room. Once in a while, we may meet after school or join a math circle at another school.

When? Once a week, during lunch/recess time

Why? To challenge yourself and have fun!
