Parents,

I’m sorry for the late update…my Monday seemed to get away from me. 

Math Pentathlon shirts were distributed Monday during the MP classes.  Please let us know as soon as possible if there is a problem with your child’s shirt.  Also, we will be reordering a limited number of adult shirts, so if you wanted one and didn’t get the money in on time, you can still get one.

Division I recap:

Division I reviewed the rules for Calla, a game similar to Mancalla.  They also learned the “capture rule” this week.  Please ask them to explain this rule to you.

Division II recap:

Division II started playing PAR 55 on the full size game boards after reviewing attribute differences.  We will play again next week while learning the “bump rule.”

Division III recap:

Our Division III students played logic games with the attribute cards from Stars & Bars.  They also learned a quick version of a game called Triple Play, a game they play before learning the larger Stars & Bars game.  They will begin to learn S&B with inside placement only next week.

Thank you to all the Pentathletes and their family members who joined us for Monday Math Night this week.  Please remember that this is a GREAT opportunity for your Pentathlete to come out and play a few games while having fun with their friends and family at the same time.  It’s also a great time to get a little practice in!!  They love challenging their coaches and their parents as well.

The dates for our remaining nights are as follows:

November 17 — January 12 — February 23 — March 23

We hope to see everyone there!!
