¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵ Math Meets Develop Mathematical Skills and Build Connections
Elementary schools throughout our district select a team of Mathematicians to compete with their peers from other schools at a series of events throughout the year. Each Math Meet event challenges scholars to work together to compute various mathematical problems to earn points. Participants are selected to participate based on their NYS Math Test Scores, iReady scores, report cards, and teacher recommendations. There are nine total Math Meet teams. Each team is comprised of nine total scholars; one representative from each of our nine elementary/K-8 schools. Within each team, students work in groups of three to solve and communicate their mathematical understanding of various problems. Scholars are scored on mathematical knowledge, strategic thinking, and communication. Points are accumulated during each competition and the winning team is announced at the culminating Escape the Room event.
