Competition Will Start February 29th and End April 15th! Who Will Win?
BRIEF OVERVIEW
MATH MADNESS is a class and course contest where students will compete against each other within their particular teacher’s class, as well as with all students in the school who are taking their particular mathematics course. At the beginning of the competition, all students will start off at level 0. As the competition continues, students will receive points based upon the scores made on the weekly assignments created for them in the Tenmarks program. Students will be able to move to the next level when students earn a certain amount of points.
Each week until the Georgia Milestones is taken in May 2015, students will receive an online Georgia Milestones Weekly Assignment from www.tenmarks.com. Math Teachers will assign 5 online assignments to the students every Monday. Student's deadline for the weekly assignment is every Sunday by 11:59pm. Students may come to after school tutorials to use laptops and receive extra help on assignments.
