Who: 

* Math League is open to 2^nd, 3^rd, 4^th and 5^th graders of all math abilities!!

* In order for the program to run, parent/guardian volunteers are needed. We ask that parents/guardians sign-up to volunteer for at least 3 sessions.

* Please let us know if this is not possible for your family, and we will do our best to accommodate. Parents/guardians must have an active CORI to volunteer.

What: 

* Students meet before school and practice solving math problems in teams.

* Although the types of problems are often new, children learn how to tackle them by applying the skills they have already learned in school. 

* The goal is to make math fun and accessible by showing kids they have the ability to successfully take on new math challenges. There is no cost to participate in MJ Math League.

When & Where: 

* Math League will meet roughly every other Friday morning before school at Martha Jones School from 7:50-8:40 AM.

* Math league begins November 8, 2024 and runs through April 4, 2025. In the Spring, each grade will compete in a Math Meet against the other Westwood elementary schools

Why: 

* It’s fun!!  Kids enjoy working with their friends and develop both curiosity and confidence. 

* Math League is a good opportunity for students with strong math skills to try something new and for students who find math a challenge to work in a fun setting.
