In Spring 2020, when the COVID-19 imposed school closures, Math CEO transitioned to an online platform. During the quarter, we hosted a total of 18 virtual math enrichment sessions for middle school students (across 6 weeks), thus allowing our young scholars to continue to engage in meaningful mathematics with their college mentors. The curriculum is available for download. For each meeting, we include a link to a website containing the various activities used that day. Feel free to use these materials for your students
