Math
Club membership is open to students in grades 5-8 who have fewer than
ten points on their behavior cards for the current quarter. Math
Club provides opportunities for struggling students to get help, and
strong students to be challenged with more advanced topics.
But more importantly, it allows them to enjoy Math during a less
structured and more social time after school with their peers, a great
way to improve their attitudes toward the subject. The
only requirement of the students is that they work on Math homework,
Accelerated Math, play the online 24 Math Game or complete other
practice work that we assign. Membership
is free, however donations of bag snacks, plastic cups and 2-liter
bottles of pop to serve 20 students twice during the year are required.
All
we need from parents is written permission for your child to stay after
school on Wednesdays for these purposes, and an understanding that you
will arrange for transportation home from school at 3:30 on days they
attend Math Club. If there
comes a day when your child needs to miss Math Club or leave sooner than
3:30, we will need your written permission (or a call to the office) to
release him or her. Students
who miss two meetings without parent permission will not be permitted to
return until the following quarter. |
If you want your child enrolled in Math Club, please complete the permission slip*, and return to Mr. Hilvers. | ||
