Between Fall 2020 and Spring 2021, Math CEO hosted weekly virtual mathematics enrichment meetings for middle school students, thus allowing our young scholars to continue to engage in meaningful mathematics with their college mentors. In the process, Math CEO developed an extensive collection of fun and challenging math activities. The curriculum is available for download; feel free to use these materials for your students.
