On Friday, September 11, 8th grade math students attended the Julia Robinson Math Festival hosted by the Rocky Mountain Math Teachers’ Circle and the University of Colorado-Denver. The festival is a form of education outreach and enrichment through which mathematicians and mathematical scientists share their passion with K-12 teachers and students.The Circles combine significant content with a setting that encourages a sense of discovery and excitement about mathematics through problem solving and interactive exploration. Ideal problems are low-threshold, high-ceiling; they offer a variety of entry points and can be approached with minimal mathematical background, but lead to deep mathematical concepts and can be connected to advanced mathematics.
