Students will receive instruction from the teacher while working through AMC 8 topics together. During each session, students will:

1. Participate in a lesson introducing the day's topic.
2. Solve a set of challenging problems with teacher guidance.
3. Engage in group discussions to explore different problem-solving methods.

Students who need help during class can use the chat feature to ask questions without disrupting others. Problems are reviewed as a group, focusing on strategies, common mistakes, and how to approach similar challenges in the future.

This class is designed for students who are comfortable with foundational AMC topics and want to build their confidence with more advanced problems. While the pace is medium, students will have time to think through issues and practice techniques.

Sample Questions:

Here are some sample problems we’ll tackle in class. This class is a great fit if your student can solve 2 out of 4. You can also take the pre-assessment as noted above.

1. How many different four-digit numbers can be formed by rearranging the four digits in 2004?

2. After Sally takes 20 shots, she has made 55% of her shots. After she takes 5 more shots, she raises her percentage to 56%. How many of the last 5 shots did she make?

3. Handy Aaron helped a neighbor for 1 1/4 hours on Monday, 50 minutes on Tuesday, from 8:20 to 10:45 on Wednesday morning, and a half hour on Friday. He is paid $3 per hour. How much did he earn for the week?

4. Niki usually leaves her cell phone on. If her cell phone is on but she is not using it, the battery will last for 24 hours. If she is using it constantly, the battery will last for only 3 hours. Since the last recharge, her phone has been on for 9 hours, and during that time, she has used it for 60 minutes. If she doesn’t use it anymore but leaves the phone on, how many more hours will the battery last?

AMC 8 Description From the Creators

Description of the AMC 8 from the creators (https://www.maa.org/math-competitions/amc-8)
"The AMC 8 is a 25-question, 40-minute, multiple-choice examination in middle school mathematics designed to promote the development of problem-solving skills. The AMC 8 allows middle school students to develop positive attitudes towards analytical thinking and mathematics that can assist in future careers. Students apply classroom skills to unique problem-solving challenges in a low-stress and friendly environment.

The material covered on the AMC 8 includes topics [and more] from a typical middle school mathematics curriculum. Possible topics include but are not limited to: counting and probability, estimation, proportional reasoning, elementary geometry including the Pythagorean Theorem, spatial visualization, everyday applications, and reading and interpreting graphs and tables. In addition, later questions may involve linear or quadratic functions and equations, coordinate geometry, and other topics traditionally covered in a beginning algebra course."

DISCLAIMER

We are not affiliated with MAA. This class provides an opportunity for students to ask questions and gain clarity on the steps and strategies for the challenging problems in each test set. We will leave the easier questions for students to work out on their own. Or we recommend that they take the 3/4 class that will cover the easier questions.
