Programs
Our programs prove that math can be rigorous yet doable, difficult yet fun, challenging yet rewarding!
We adhere to the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics standards (NCTM) and Washington State’s Essential Academic Learning Requirements (EALRs), and—with the help of teachers, principals and parents—help students develop a healthy, happy relationship with math.
Here’s how we do it:
- Math Clubs: A before or after school hotspot, students revel in all manner of interactive, hands-on math activities and games.
- Monthly Math Challenge Boards: Students vie to catapult their classroom to math stardom by answering this always rigorous, yet ever-practical, math question.
- Family Math Nights: School cafeterias can barely contain the enthusiasm of students, parents, and teachers as they play math games together.
- Summer Math Camp: As fun as camping, canoeing and crafts combined, these camps keep math momentum rolling throughout the summer.
- Mathematician in Residence: Expert math coaches team with classroom teachers to build their confidence in math and their repertoire of fun and educational math activities and lessons.
