Prime Factor Math Circle

 



Thursday, March 15th, is the 2012 Math Kangaroo Day.


Time and place: Thursday March 15th, 2012, 6:30-8:00 PM, at Ben Franklin Elementary (Kirkland).

Math Kangaroo is an international competition in solving mathematical problems. It is very popular in Europe and now is finding its way into the United States.

The problems you will find in Math Kangaroo are appropriate for the students' grade. They require no special math skills beyond what's learned at school. But they are nothing like the run-of-the-mill problems the students normally tackle in class. They are creative and challenging. They require logical reasoning and out-of-the-box thinking.

To learn more about the competition, visit www.mathkangaroo.org page

Participation fee is $20 per student. Each student receives a T-shirt, a certificate of participation, and a gift in addition to a competition booklet and a pencil on the test day.
Top 10 national winners and top state winners get extra prizes.

Test samples can be found at Kangaroo US page or at Kangaroo Canada page.
