The Central Florida Math Circle is an effort of the Department of Mathematics<\/a> at the University of Central Florida<\/a> to offer the middle school students of the Central Florida region an opportunity to have fun with mathematics. This year, we will offer virtual math circle sessions. Therefore, middle school students in any other area can register to participate.<\/em><\/p>\n The Math Circle is not directed towards a particular curriculum; it is not a class, a lecture or a tutorial. It is a directed experience in the encouragement of student discovery of mathematics. We are happy to be part of a national effort \u201cThe National Association of Math Circles<\/a>\u201d to encourage and develop mathematical insight in students.<\/p>\n Online Participant & Parent Code of Conduct Form<\/a><\/p>\n Online Participation Agreement and Waiver Form <\/a><\/p>\n The registered participants will be contacted in January.<\/p>\n This year,\u00a0 all sessions are delivered through Zoom so that students can join at home.

Students should have internet access and a computer with a webcam so that they can participate at home. Students will need paper and a pencil\/pen.<\/p>\n Assisted by Ms. Maria Murphy<\/p>\n (PowerPoint: Math Circle Day 1 Blank Mr. Connor Pitchford<\/a><\/span>, Mr Connor Pitchford Jan 29, 2021 with Discussion<\/a> )<\/p>\n (PowerPoint: Mr. Connor Pitchford, Feb 5, 2021, with class discussion<\/a>)<\/p>\n (PowerPoint: Mr. Connor Pitchford, Feb 12, 2021, with class discussion<\/a> )<\/p>\n ( PowerPoint: Mr. Alexander Eubanks, March 5, with class discussion<\/a>\u00a0)<\/p>\n Assisted by Mr. Connor Pitchford and Mr. Alexander Eubanks<\/p>\nRegistration<\/h2>\n
