This week the Math Forum is starting a new year for three Problem of
the Week Projects.
There is a POW designed for grades 3-6 at
http://forum.swarthmore.edu/elempow/
There is a POW designed for grades 6-9 at
http://forum.swarthmore.edu/midpow/
For High School students there is http://forum.swarthmore.edu/geopow
All of these can be accessed from the forum students page
http://forum.swarthmore.edu/students
Along with the Elementary POW program there is a mentoring project.
You can read about it at
http://forum.swarthmore.edu/elempow/mentors.html
Visiting Math Mentors will volunteer for one or more weeks to reply to
solutions submitted by elementary school students. As problem-solving
mentors, they will enhance their ability to develop assessment
criteria and increase their own problem-solving abilities, while
helping elementary students discover the joys of exploring challenging
problems.
I hope you will find these POW's useful additions to your classroom.
