MATH MANIA & COMPUTER FUN
(grades 2-8)

Get ready for the most fun you've had with math and computers . . . ever! Part of your day will be spent learning to be a better problem-solver and creative thinker through challenging and fun math activities, discussions and use of manipulatives. You will also explore all kinds of practical math problems and puzzles, and learn how to use these math concepts in your daily life.

For the remainder of the day you will go surfing - on the Internet. You will create your web site and more! You will scan and edit photos (ever want to put your brother's head on your dog's body?) You will create super cool PowerPoint presentations and explore the Internet as an educational and fun tool. All Internet surfing will be kid-safe and appropriate.

This program will help you gain more confidence in your math and computer abilities, build on your basic skills, and you'll have great fun, too! Whether you're "math or computer-shy" or simply a "whiz," you'll be a winner in this exciting class. Get ready to be a math maniac and computer champ!! Michael Blumberg, M.Ed.& Marie Mueller, M.Ed.
