| The
Cactus Ranch Math Pentathlon Club is gearing up for another fun
season! We will be learning problem solving games while
developing and practicing math concepts and skills. Spatial,
geometric, scientific, and algebraic are just a few of the
skills that are incorporated into these games. We encourage
friendly competition with great emphasis on good sportsmanship.
For more information, check out the Math Pentathlon website at
www.mathpentath.org.
WOW - all
this and we still have FUN!!
Look for
information to come home in the Tuesday folders regarding
registration for the Cactus Ranch Math Pentathlon Club. Our
classes will begin September 15th. We will be
enrolling 140 students this year. If we reach maximum capacity
we will put you on a waiting list and notify you. Chances are
high that we will max out so we thank you in advance for your
patience. Because of available space, games/materials, and
volunteers, the divisions are limited to 20 students per class.
Help! My child wants to play the MP games but
couldn't join the official club. – The games are available for
purchase through the website above for school or home use. We
encourage parents to look at that alternative to give their
children the opportunity to play the games at home.
