More than 115 @beechwood_tiger students are currently spending their Saturday morning taking mock exams for their AP math courses! Mr. Weyer, Ms. G, & I are incredibly inspired by their dedication to academic excellence and pursuit of strong @APforStudents scores. #wearebeechwood
As one of the largest @beechwood_tiger clubs, we’ve struggled to find space for our 80 MAΘ members. We often split into 2 rooms & officers run between them to facilitate math activities.
Today we used the new TLC room. It was incredible to have everyone together! #wearebeechwood
We pursue excellence.
Our @beechwood_tiger mathematicians are living out The Beechwood Way! 120+ AP Precalculus, AP Calculus, & AP Statistics students are on campus this Saturday morning taking mock exams in preparation for their upcoming Advanced Placement exam! #wearebeechwood
We had 4 award winners on the Freshman/Sophomore Individual Test:
-Honorable Mentions: Jack Izor & Jimmy Zhou
-Two-way tie for 2nd Place: Simon Cullison & Julian Sandberg
Congrats again to all of our amazing mathletes, who practiced after-school & gave up part of their Saturday!
What a fantastic day at the 31st Annual John O’Bryan Mathematics Competition @nkuedu for our 15 @beechwood_tiger mathletes! Our two JV teams took 1st and 2nd respectively, while our Varsity team took 1st in the 5-person team competition and 3rd overall!! Full results in thread …
Our JV team of Simon Cullison, Maya Gehlhoff, Julian Sandberg, Addy Schilling, & Ellie Stamm won 2nd Place in the Individual Test! Between their 2 events (5-Person Team & Individual Test), this JV team earned 2nd Place overall out of the 10 JV teams in attendance!
I always look forward to attending the annual Sehnert Lecture with my students! Duke professor Dr. Ingrid Daubechies & Canadian artist Dominique Ehrman introduced us to the Mathemalchemy Project, an amazing art/math sculpture which just arrived at @nkuedu! https://t.co/prAdoiX6TQ
Today’s @beechwood_tiger Homecoming theme was “Rhyme Without Reason” — three of our students dressed up as math teachers Mr. Fryer, Mr. Weyer, and Mr. Meyers! #wearebeechwood
Our first @BeechwoodMAT meeting of the school year was inspired by @nytimes Connections game (https://t.co/VOj47C29LD). We played a numbers edition written by @artimm2 (https://t.co/GQefPa2Np6), which our MAΘ group loved!
P.S. Play old Connections games at https://t.co/91zFiRSJIo
So proud of our @beechwood_tiger#APCalc & #APStats students for giving up their Saturday morning to take a mock @APforStudents exam! These mathematicians are pursuing excellence in their learning! I’m also getting to participate in the @AdvanceKentucky mock exam scoring session!
That’s a wrap on our 3rd Annual @beechwood_tiger#PiDay! Congrats to our winners from yesterday’s competitions! This afternoon, our 4th-8th graders rotated between five breakout sessions of fun math activities, all developed by our student planning committee! #wearebeechwood 🤓🥧
Our annual #PiDay event kicked off with individual & team competitions, as well as a digits of π memorization contest! We’ll continue engaging these 45 @beechwood_tiger 4th-8th graders tomorrow (3.14) with fun math games & activities developed by our MAΘ crew! #wearebeechwood 🥧
Attention all @beechwood_tiger 4th-8th grade families! The students of MAΘ are hosting a FREE two-day, after-school event to celebrate Pi Day and all things mathematics, and we’d love to have your kiddo there! Details and registration can be found at https://t.co/LiyihwomvE. 🤓🥧
Inspired by her awesome New Year video, we invited Ms. Giesbers to our meeting this morning to share her love of the Fibonacci sequence & the golden ratio! MAΘ students learned about its presence throughout nature and even took body measurements to see how proportional they were!
More important than any results or awards, Ms. Giesbers and I are bursting with pride in these amazing mathematicians. They gave up a Saturday morning (and many after-school hours of practice) to engage with some SUPER challenging math problems! Way to represent @BeechwoodMAT! 🤓
Congratulations to 9th Grade @BeechwoodMAT mathlete Simon Cullison for his Honorable Mention award on the Freshman/Sophomore Individual Test at the 30th Annual John O’Bryan Mathematics Competition! 🏅 #wearebeechwood
