We Invite All West Students to Join Us in Discovering the Joy of Math at HOME 

 

What is Mighty Math? 

 

Mighty Math is a program open to all West School students. Its purpose is to foster a love for mathematics and encourage students to engage in math practice at home. 

While participation is optional, we strongly encourage all students to embrace the challenge and discover the joy of math through Mighty Math! 

The program will look a little different this year - read on to learn more! 

 

How does it work?  

  1. Each month, we will send home a paper copy and an email of the Mighty Math Newsletter featuring the Problem of the Month.
    • Students can work independently, with friends, or alongside family members 
    • Students can answer as many parts as they'd like (Keep in mind that question "i" is the easiest and they progressively get more challenging!)
    • After working on the problem, we kindly request that students tear off and return the slip at the bottom of the newsletter to Ms. Willman (They can keep the rest of the newsletter - including the problem and their work to solve it - at home)
  2. At the end of the month, there will be a raffle prize drawing for any child who has turned in their slip of paper!
  3. In the following month's newsletter, the solution to the problem will be shared, enabling students to check their work 
  4. In addition to the Problem of the Month, the newsletter will contain suggestions for engaging math games to try at home
