Math Enrichment Grades 3-4

Enrichment, 3rd to 4th grade students. We'll build on students' basic understanding of place values to make students comfortable working with large numbers. Understanding
of fractions will be reviewed, basic operations with simple fractions will be requred in some word problems. Word problems will require clear understanding of meaning for every arithmetic operation performed in solution. Exposure to geomertry will include
hands-on experience with poligons, angles, nets of simple polyhedra. Certain classical math circle problems will be introduced from Martin Gardner collection. Singapore Intensive and Beast Academy level 3 books will also be used in class (roughly corresponds
to grade 4 US math). Some Silver level students choose to participate in Math Kangaroo contest which will be available March 16, 2017 at our center, but participation is optional and not a part of the class, where the emphasis is on cooperative approach.
