World Class Math Instruction Your Children Will Love!
Welcome to the 2023-2024 Puzzle Season!
We are glad to welcome everyone back to our 2023-2024 season. There are a few changes this year. We are sad to report that Mr. Sukher, who has been our Puzzle Master for many years, has retired from this post (he will continue teaching his classes!). We are grateful for all the wonderful puzzles he offered, and we will surely miss his participation.
For over a decade we tremendously enjoyed offering puzzles not only to our kids, but also to Parents and Grandparents. But parent participation dwindled, and we reluctantly made the decision to discontinue the Parent & Grandparent puzzles, concentrating on the offering for our students.
And here are the welcome back puzzles for the kids! Submission deadline is October 5. Enjoy!
Rules of Contests
We offer 5-6 contests per year. Each contest is graded individually, and then at the end of the
Winners are selected by grade level (i.e. there are separate winners from grade 2 and grade 3 even though they are offered the same contest).
It is important that contestants show their solutions. A correct answer without an explanation is awarded 50% of the possible points. Only a correct answer with correct explanation will lead to a 100% score. Partial explanations result in partial scores.
Note: only MWSM students and their relatives are eligible for the prizes – although of course, everyone is welcome to send solutions.
About Our Own Puzzle Contests
Puzzles help train out-of-the-box thinking and keep up interest in math. They frequently tie together many unrelated things children learn in the regular program, and most certainly they train logic.
We also offer puzzles to parents, grandparents, aunts
Our Puzzle Contests have been run since 2005. Join us and enjoy!
Puzzle us!
Our puzzles come from a variety of sources – old books, old memories, old and new friends – and many of our own making.
We always welcome new additions – so if you know of good ones – please send them our way to info@metrowestschool.com
