MATHCOUNTS
by Dan Beaty
MATHCOUNTS® is a national Middle School program that encourages students to increase their math skills through learning and competition. Students meet weekly (Thursday after school) for practice. The practice session includes correcting weekly assignments, a lesson (often things that are not taught in the regular classroom), and a competition to improve the students' speed and accuracy. See MATHCOUNTS.org for more MATHCOUNTS information.
Top students advance from school competition to regional, state and national competitions. The top 12 students from the school competition to the Tulsa regional competition. The top teams from the regional go to an all expense paid trip to state competition. The top four students in the state go to an all expense trip to national competition.
The key to MATHCOUNTS is to learn by reworking your missed
problems until you have learned HOW to work it
