MATHNASIUM MULTIPLICATION MADNESS PROGRAM*

Just like learning to walk before you can run, learning multiplication and the times tables are building blocks for other math topics taught in school - higher learning such as division, long multiplication, fractions and algebra. Students who have difficulty with the times tables will find these levels of math much more difficult than they need to be. There is no time to pull out a calculator or to take 20 seconds to work out a math strategy before coming up with the answer. Students who have not mastered their tables will very often fall behind in math (and other subjects that use math) and begin to loose confidence. All because they did not work well on the fundemental concepts of mulriplication and times tables!

We Make Math Make Sense. Mastering multiplication would take much more than just these 3 free sessions of Mathnasium Multiplication Madness, in these sessions we try to help kids make sense out of multiplication and understands what multiplication is - but the grouping of sets, repeated addition, a faster way of adding. We use an assortment of manipulatives and techniques of skip counting. Once they master the basics, we would expand upon this concept by creating interesting games and word problems which will allow them to discover the patterns in the numbers and multiplication strategies.
TriMathlon
Competition is an important cultural value, one we celebrate in spades. From the first grade spelling bee to the science fair to mock trials, children have no shortage of fun, competitive ways to practice and show off their academic talents. For the most part, however, math is conspicuously missing from the list. This is where we, Mathnasium, with local centers in Round Rock and Georgetown--and more than 200 others across the US-- step up to the plate by providing a competitive venue for math-lovers and skeptics alike called "National TriMathlon Day".

Mathnasium's First Annual National TriMathlon Day was held on Saturday, May 14th, 2011 at our center in Round Rock, as well as at many other Mathnasium centers across the US. We had a good turn out for the first of what promises to be an excellent annual event to promote "numeracy" and excellence in mathematics for youngsters across America.

As we are looking now for sponsors for next year's event, please contact Lavanya Reddy at 512-415-5371 if you/your company are interested in helping to support or promote this excellent event.

ABOUT MATHNASIUM'S TRIMATHLON: Intended as a fun-filled competition to help elementary school kids engage with mathematics, students in Grades 3, 4, 5 and 6 will compete in three challenging math events (The Counting Game, Magic Squares, and Mental Math Workout).
