Math Challenge is a free math enrichment program for Rachel Carson Elementary students from Math-In-Action. No registration required and students can jump in at any time!

There will be 15 Math Challenge packets published approximately every other week throughout the school year, and each set will present problems ordered by level of difficulty: easier to more difficult. 

Each challenge is designed to give students opportunities to sharpen their mathematical problem-solving skills.

How to Participate

• There will be 15 challenges throughout the school year. Refer to the math challenge calendar for release dates, due dates, and challenge solutions. 

• Solve as many problems as you can! In order to receive credit, students must solve the minimum number required for their grade AND submit their packets on-time (see minimum requirements outlined on each Math Challenge packet).

• This is a great opportunity for families to be involved and enjoy math through fun and engaging math problems! We encourage parents and siblings to get involved in discussing and solving them!

How to Submit Answers

*All submissions this year must be made electronically to ensure accurate tracking.
Please submit your students' Math Challenge packets (by the due date) using one of the following two methods:

1. Emailing scanned responses to mathchallenge@carsonptsa.org 

2. Parents can help students submit their answers online via Math Challenge Google Forms for each packet, which will be posted under the tab Packet Submissions once the current week's packet is available.
