Our last month's March 8th, 2023 Enrichment Workshop: Students were exploring Geogebra to draw and solve problems using some classic geometric features. Besides learning the wonderful assistive technology, our Ravens used Geogebra to explore interesting properties of geometric shapes on their Chromebooks after a tutorial from our Math teacher and Mathletes himself, Mr. Daniel Lee.
In our Feb 8th, 2023 Enrichment Workshop: There was lots of excitement and new faces at our meet today! Lots of students are eager to engage in some excellent math content problems (see attached photos below). The student executives especially did some amazing work planning it all out! In 1st place, we had the team "Veggie Eaters" claim the top spot. They get to take home a pack of "Smarties".
We also had our Grade 7 students coming up at a respectable 3rd place! Big props to the math folks teaching the kids on the intermediate side! They put up quite a challenge to our secondary kids!
