Math Kangaroo is an annual international competition for grades 1-12, the next one being scheduled for March 20, 2014 at 6:00 p.m. on the campus of the University of Colorado Colorado Springs. The mission is to encourage students to master their mathematical knowledge, to give them confidence in their ability for comprehending math, to help them understand how mathematics applies in nature and human activities, and to develop their ability to derive pleasure and satisfaction through intellectual life. To read more about it, go to http://mathkangaroo.org/. We will devote a few Math Circles to preparing for this competition.
Remember, the Math Kangaroo Center is open to any student (grades 1-12) from the area, even if they are attending another school. All participants are winners!
