The Academic Preparation Squad (APS) prepares low-income elementary and middle school students to succeed in advanced mathematics by increasing positive attitudes and active engagement in learning math.
The APS strategy centers on the use of a new teaching tool called Math Maze. Math Maze is an innovative card game for elementary and middle school students that teaches them math skills in a fun and enjoyable environment. The APS staff and volunteers conduct workshops and trainings for school administrators, teachers, parents and students. These events teach participants how to use Math Maze to improve student attitudes and increase engagement and proficiency in mathematics. In addition, APS produce and promotes Math Maze game tournaments to help motivate students to practice.
We are inviting the community to come out and bring their children Grades 3-8 to participate. There are prizes and trophies to be awarded to the tournament winners. This tournament will feature 3 Brackets of Math Maze game play to determine who will take home the trophies and prizes.
Parents come and bring your children, Grades 3-8, to compete to win Trophies & Great Prizes!
Lunch will be served to all tournament participants.
Tournament Date/Time:
December 14, 2013, 10:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m.
Location:
Hawthorne Memorial Center’s Polaris Room
3901 E. El Segundo Blvd., Hawthorne, California 90250
