National TriMathlon 2013!

A Fun Filled Event for Kids in Grades 2, 3, 4 & 5

Modeled after a triathlon, the TriMathlon allows kids to test their mental fitness by solving math problems in a fun-filled atmosphere. Join us for our exciting national math competition where 2nd-5th graders of all math levels participate in fun math challenges. Every child receives a gift just for participating and helps support local schools! The winners receive additional prizes and earn further donations to their schools.


The competition consists of the following 3 events:
  • The Counting Game - Tests students’ ability to count from any number, to any number, by any number.
  • Magic Squares Challenge - Students are awarded points for creativity in developing their own math problems.
  • Mental Math Workout - Tests students’ Number Sense by asking them to solve given problems the “smart” way – without pencil and paper.
For more details and to sign up, please visit mathnhp.org.
