Preparing for the FAST Mathematics Test: Training Camp Essentials
The countdown to the FAST Mathematics Test has begun, and it's time to gear up for an intensive 6-week training camp.
Our goal is to ensure that everyone is benchmark ready, equipped with the skills and tools necessary to excel. Here's what we need to make our training camp effective:
Essential Equipment
Notebooks: Each student will need a new notebook to document their work. These notebooks will be crucial as students tackle problems involving the calculation of the slope of a line, exponential functions, and the volume and surface area of geometric figures. Keeping organized notes will help solidify understanding and provide a valuable resource for review.
Pencils: A steady supply of pencils is essential for students to work through problems and make calculations..
Kiddie Approved Snacks: To keep energy levels high and minds sharp, we will provide approved snacks. These will be distributed as students actively participate in answering questions and serving as peer tutors.
Training Camp Activities
Problem Solving Sessions: Students will engage in regular problem-solving exercises, focusing on key topics such as slopes, exponential growth, and geometry. This hands-on practice is vital for mastering complex mathematical concepts.
Peer Tutoring: Students will have opportunities to teach and learn from one another. By explaining concepts to peers, they will reinforce their understanding and develop communication skills.
Interactive Q&A: Throughout the camp, students will participate in interactive sessions where they can ask questions and receive immediate feedback. This dynamic environment will encourage learning and boost confidence.
By ensuring students have the necessary equipment and creating an engaging environment, we aim to foster a productive and supportive atmosphere. Let's prepare to excel together in the FAST Mathematics Test!
More than half of students from low‑income households
