Math 24 Challenge
Math 24 Challenge is a student competition for grades 4-8. School districts and students must be part of the Greater Dane County Advanced Learners Network to participate. The tournaments are based on five versions of the Math 24 card games produced by Suntex. You can order cards from eNasco. See product numbers from eNasco here. Working with the games fosters basic facts, mental math, problem-solving, and patterning.
The regional tournament will be held at the UW-Madison Union South 1308 Dayton Madison, WI (map). Grades 4 & 5 compete in the morning (9:15 - 11:15), and grades 6, 7, & 8 compete in the afternoon (12:15 - 2:15). Individual trophies are awarded to students for 1st through 6th place. Ribbons are awarded to the highest-scoring student from each district.
