Math Camp and other Info

School begins on Monday, August 19.  The Summer Math Review is due the first day with a test on the study guide Wednesday, August 21.

Seventh grade math team practice will be every Wednesday at 7 am beginning August 28.   I will send out a breakfast schedule.  Each student may bring breakfast on a Wed. for the group once a semester.  We may add a Tuesday practice the week before a tournament for extra practice.  It is important that EVERYONE attend so you do not feel behind the rest of the team.  We will cipher the entire time and then enjoy breakfast together.

Eighth grade math team practice will be every Thursday and Friday at 7 am.  Thanks to Mallory, Carley, Ian, Cameron, Trevor, Colby and Eli for helping teach at math camp.  I appreciate you all very much.  You did a great job!  We enjoyed a nice pizza party together which was fun!

Math Camp Awards:
Around the World - Sy Hulgan
Notebook Awards - Jozi Jackson and Curt Wilson (many of the notebooks looked very nice).
Survivor Math Winner (math bee and head to head competition)- Colton Smith

Also, I stay on Mondays from 3 - 4 pm for anyone wanting extra math team practice.
