Clpretzel Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I'm starting a weekly math club this coming year that will, in part, prepare for the Elementary MOEMs tests. I want it to be fun but challenging. I'd love to know what resources you all would recommend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4KookieKids Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I intend to start with something that’s purely fun and cover cryptography and code breaking, something a la Simon Singh’s Code Book and completely open ended stuff like exploring Pascal’s triangle, proving our conjectures, and generalizing to other structures that can be created in similar ways. After that, we’ll dig into more actual problem solving stuff, but I’m still formulating plans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaben Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I ran a 4th / 5th group which used MOEMS for several years. I blogged about it on a week to week basis at mymathclub.blogspot.com. I have a couple starter pages: Resource List: http://mymathclub.blogspot.com/p/resources.html. In particular there's a activity map for each year linked off of that. Getting Started: http://mymathclub.blogspot.com/p/how-to-get-started.html Also I think the year end wraps up could be helpful. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumto2 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Maybe these practice problems would be useful. http://www.primarymathschallenge.org.uk/downloads. This is a UK competition for elementary age students. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
