Thinkculation Cup Calculation Contest: K-G3
If you have a little one in kindergarten through third grade who is interested in math, the Thinkculation Cup Calculation Contest is the perfect event for them! The Thinkculation Cup Calculation Contest is a free online math competition open to any early elementary school student that wants to either improve or show off their calculation skills.
One of the goals behind this contest is to promote mathematics and work to make sure that as many young minds as possible have access to a quality math education. Math is beautiful and everyone should have the chance to enjoy the subject.
That is exactly why the Thinkculation Cup was created. Most math competitions cost money to enter which limits the amount of people who can participate. By making this event free to enter, this allows more students to have fun solving problems. This in turn will hopefully inspire more students to take on math as a cherished hobby!
Event Details
The Thinkculation Cup Calculation Contest takes place over four days. To ensure that your child is able to take the test at a time that is most convenient for them, there are time slots available for 10am (Saturday and Sunday only), 1pm, 4pm, and 7pm.
The test is 20 minutes long and will be held via a live Zoom exam room. Furthermore, the exam is divided into two separate 10-minute sections called Fundamental and Smart Calculation. During the contest, participants have the chance to solve up to 100 problems related to the topic of calculation.
After the contest, there will be a national ranking posted so your child can see how they performed!
