Math Challenge (Bi-Weekly)

Math challenge - COMING SOON!

Math Challenge is on this year! This is a free math enrichment program offered to all students at Lakeview. The purpose of this program is to entice, engage and challenge students to solve interesting math problems while strengthening their math fundamentals, critical thinking, problem solving skills and confidence in math.

Students can also involve their families to help and engage in a fun discussion to solve math problems.

Math Competitions

Math Competitions were a big hit last year, and we’re excited to bring them back!

Math competitions give students a fun and engaging opportunity to challenge themselves, strengthen their problem-solving skills, and put their math knowledge to the test.

Unlike typical classwork, competition problems often require students to think creatively and determine which skills and strategies to apply.

Participating in math competitions can help students build confidence, develop critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, and foster a deeper interest in math.

Check out the upcoming Math Competitions planned by the Lakeview PTSA STEAM Team for this school year below!
