In this webinar a Math Kangaroo instructor incorporates engagement triggers through Polls to have students participate in an activity. There are no student-teacher discussions as it happens in a regular small group class.  

Webinar Information:

• Students in grades 7-8 with math competition experience or who are interested in competing at a high level in Math Kangaroo are invited to join the Investigating Course.
• This course draws on problems from the Level 7-8 competitions, and assumes students have familiarity with problem solving strategies.
• In this course, students will work with rational numbers, algebra, multiples/factors, 2D and 3D Geometry, spatial and logical reasoning, combinatorics, clocks, calendars, and percentages.
• This course is intense but fun at the same time.
• For added challenge, the optional homework for weeks 2-9 will be an entire Math Kangaroo exam to build the students’ persistence and stamina for the actual competition.
• This webinar is planned to meet 10 times for 1 hour each.    
• The number of participants is limited to 300 students.
