For the love of mathematics


Compiled by Antonio Flores-Lobos News

OK, OK it is understood that not many are fans of mathematics, and some even fear they have. For some students, the kind of "mate" is the one that gives them headaches. But that has to be, because the math teacher at Bard College, Japheth Wood (arrives) and a team of future teachers of mathematics at the university mentioned, have brought "The Math Circle" in Kingston, to transform mathematics in a fun activity for everyone, especially for students in 5th through 8th graders. The meetings of the Circle are the second Saturday of the month, from 1 to 3 pm, at the Kingston Library, located at 55 Franklin Street. The next meetings of the "Circle" are on Saturday October 9, 1913 December and 11 December.

The Math Circle Bard College is an educational program of enrichment to promote interest in mathematics among students in elementary, middle and high schools. Wood Master, and his team work with interesting problems and issues not typical, Puzzles, games, math problems, and activities! So you know, do not let your child have anxiety with mathematics, do not let it fail the exams at one of the most important kinds of education.
