Rules

We know you want them. We have to have them.

These Things Are Not Allowed:

Because we are emphasizing your own mental skill:

• no computational devices will be allowed. This includes: books, calculators and technology devices of all kinds.
• no drawing aids are allowed either, including compasses, graph paper, rulers, protractors, etc.
• no communication devices will be allowed. This includes: laptops, Smart phones, or any other Smart technologies. (You are Smart enough.)

Form of Answers:

• Fractions should be in their lowest term.( ⁷⁄₃ , not ¹⁴⁄₆  )
• Radicals should be simplified so that the radicand does not contain any fractions nor be divisible by the square of any integer greater than one. Denominators should be rationalized. (√(12, √2/3, 1/(√2 +1) are NOT acceptable. They should be simplified as 2√3, √6/3, √2-1)
• Answers should be exact. (3.14 will NOT work for Pi, nor will 0.67 instead of ²⁄₃)

Conventions:

• Factors of an integer refer to positive integer factors only. For example, 6 has 4 factors: 1, 2, 3, 6.
• Prime numbers refer to positive primes only.
• The notation means a 3-digit integer 100a+10b+c.
• A polygon named ABCD is a quadrilateral with vertices A, B, C, and D occurring in that order.
• 0 is not a natural number.

Parents

While your daughter is playing math, we invite you to take a coffee break with us. In a breakout room, some of us will be available to meet with you online to talk about the challenges of incorporating transformational technology like AI into education in ways that most benefit a growing brain and will augment, not substitute for, critical thinking habits. Once your child registers for PROM² for Girls, we’ll send you the link to our coffee break session. Feel free to bring a cup of your favorite drink and settle in with some good conversation with kindred spirits.
