Math Olympics
Spanning the World Wide Web and Saxon Math to bring you the constant variety of Mathematics…
the thrill of square roots…
and the agony of long division…
the human drama of academic competition…
this is CDA’s Math Olympics!
Date : February 27 and 28 at both Carrolton and Flower Mound Campuses.
This year, we will hold Number Sense and Mathematics competitions.
Number Sense is a 10 minute, mental math competition.
Mathematics is a 30 minute, multiple choice test.
Please complete the entry form that was sent home for your child to compete in this event.
The form is also available on Mrs. Lester’s Teachers Docs on the CDA website.
You can also enter by emailing her directly at jlester@coramdeoacademy.org. In the email, specify which events you would like your child to participate in.
Competition will last approximately one hour, in the afternoon each day after testing is complete.
