  4. and offer students an opportunity to demonstrate their ability to reason, communicate, and problem-solve in cooperative groups.

  5. The competition is designed to be fun, informative, and worthwhile, and is intended to be an exciting event for many of Orange County’s top 4th-6th grade math students.

  6. Each child will receive a participation certificate, a button, a program with all students and schools listed, a snack, a team photo, and a team bag of goodies donated by corporate sponsors*. * Pending corporate sponsorship

Schedule of Events 7:30 – 8:30 Registration/Poster Exhibit/Photos 8:30 – 9:00 General Assembly in the Gym 9:15 – 10:00 Math Reasoning 10:05 – 10:35 Statistics & Probability 10:35 – 10:55 Snack Break 10:55 – 11:25 Number Sense (4th); MG/AF 11:35 –12:05 Measurement & Geometry (5th); AF/NS 12:15 – 12:45 Algebra & Functions (6th); NS/MG 12:45 – 2:00 Lunch (Bring own games/activities) 2:00 – 3:15 Awards Assembly in the Gym

  8. Mathematical Reasoning Team Test — 25 word problems Students must show as much work as possible. Diagrams, charts, etc. help with scoring points.

  9. Statistics and Data Analysis Team Test — Each team will answer about 6 questions relating to statistics and probability, then conduct an experiment, predict results, gather data, and analyze the experiment based on their outcomes.

  10. Number Sense Consists of two tests added together: Estimation (counts for 40% of score) and Mental Math (counts for 60% of score).

  11. Estimation Team Test — Six stations are located around the perimeter of the room. Problems usually involve some sort of measurement: linear, area, volume, weight, liquid volume, metric or standard measurements.

  12. Mental Math Individual Test – Students will be shown 40 different mental math questions. They will have five seconds to study the problem, and five seconds to write the answer. No work is allowed…all answers must be done mentally. Individual scores are added together to form one team score.

  13. Sample Mental Math PowerPoint

  14. Measurement and Geometry Team Test – Each team will be asked to build an object using materials provided, students must sketch their construction prior to building, then test it, with multiple trials. Object is judged using a rubric.

  15. Algebra and Functions Team Test – Each team will answer 9-10 Algebra and Functions questions…most problems are word problems or logic puzzles.

  16. Awards Assembly in the Gym Olympic-style medals are awarded for top six places for each event. Each grade level is scored separately. A total of ninety team awards are given at each event. Each child on the top six teams for each event receives a medal.

  17. We hope the 2009 Math Field Day event will be a memorable experience for you and your students!
