The week-long March Break Camps exposes students in grades 1-8 to math in a fun, interactive, and hands-on way. The project-focused camps are designed to keep students engaged in learning math and explore math in real-life scenarios. Both an in-person and an online format for the March Break Camps are available.
For the in-person camps, students come to the University of Toronto- St George campus for a week-long project-focused camp. Throughout the week, students explore various mathematical topics through hands-on projects that will stimulate their interest in learning mathematics.
For the online camps, students engage in learning math through real-life scenarios and projects over Zoom and Google Classroom. Each day, students attend a 3 hour long online camp.
