Description of the Elementary M.A.T.H. Competition
The competition will be made up of four rounds with three different team
members competing in each round. Each round shall consist of seven
multiple-choice questions. The competition will be based on The National
Council of Teachers of Mathematics publication Curriculum and Evaluation
Standards for School Mathematics. This includes thirteen curriculum standards.
Teams
Teams are composed ideally of twelve members. Four others may be used as
alternates. There is no limit of how many students may come from any one grade
level. A student may participate in only one round. At the end of the fourth
question, one or two members of the squad may substitute for students at the
table.
Eligibility
All full-time students in grades 4-5 (6 where appropriate) are eligible to compete. Within these constraints, schools may select their teams in any manner and with any additional criteria they choose.
Format
The competition will consist of four rounds with each round consisting of seven multiple-choice questions which will be read to the students and projected on the screen simultaneously. After consulting with the other team members at the table, the team captain will answer each question by circling the chosen response on the answer sheet. At the conclusion of the allotted time, (30 to 60 seconds) the proctor will grade each response before the next question is read.
