New partner school in Slovakia

The Pavol Demitru Primary School and Kindergarten (Základná škola s materskou školou Pavla Demitru) is our newest and twelfth partner school in Slovakia. We are very pleased to welcome them and look forward to working with them.

The teacher Kristína Čierniková has created two exciting trails in cooperation with the University of Constantine the Philosopher. The first trail “Námestie Matice slovenskej” (Code:  1620472) (translated: Square of the Slovak Matrix) contains 10 tasks that were created at the Square of the Slovak Matrix in the Trenčín region.

The second trail “Po stopách histórie mesta Dubnica nad Váhom” (Code: 3620281) (translated: On the traces of the history of Dubnica nad Váhom) allows you to explore many historical monuments of the town of Dubnica nad Váhom in a mathematical way.

The Math Trails were carried out with over 40 5th, 8th and 9th grade students. The children had a lot of fun and the following photographs provide an insight into the lessons:

We are also very much looking forward to more exciting trails and tasks!

The packages with the official partner school badge and the MCM measuring instruments are already on their way to the schools and we are already looking forward to receiving more applications from all over the world.

All further information on the partner school program and the requirements for the application can be found in the article on the first MCM partner school as well as on the homepage of our MaSCE³ project.
