Calling All Matheletes! Math Challenge Social Club

This is the perfect class for students that want to have some fun with math and have a social outlet to share their interest and skills with other students. Each week I will have a set of brain teasers/ puzzles/complex math problems that I will present to the students. I will pair them up with another student(s) or they can compete independently if they are more comfortable. I will be available to coach each student/team and after the students come up with a solution we will review each problem together and see how they did. This is a great way to build problem solving/collaboration skills.  I see this as a time to have fun, socialize, and, most importantly, practice our problem solving skills. I am open to students enrolling as teams.
