Northeast Elementary sent two fifth grade teams to the Middlesex Math Madness Tournament in Burlington on May 14th. These 10 students were selected after a tough try-out in March. They had to work independently and as teams of 5 during the event.
135 students competed. While our teams did not place in the top 3 (there were 27 teams), they all persevered and did an amazing job. Trying to problem solve with that kind of pressure is no easy task! Ms. Bernard and I are incredibly proud that they took a risk and tried something new!
We DID have the overall individual winner from Northeast! Cole Gaynor solved 9 out of 10 problems correctly to make him the highest scoring individual student. We are so proud of all of our mathematicians!
