Blaine Math Olympiad 2015


Washington State Math Championship
March 28, 2015

Practice problems are available at:



ConocoPhillips and Blaine School District will be hosting the
Washington State Math Championship in Blaine on Saturday,
March 28, 2015.  The contest is open to teams in grades 5-8.

RULES:  
The Math Championship is open to public and private schools.  A team consists of
four students from the same grade, from the same school.  If necessary, a student
from a lower grade may be moved up (i.e. a 5th grader may be on a 6th grade team),
but no older students may compete on a younger team.

Each team will take all five team-type tests for their grade level, submitting one
answer sheet.  A sixth test will be an individual test consisting of 30 problems.  The
first 10 questions of the individual test will be used toward the team test results.  The
top 3 scores will be counted.  Students will compete against students in their own
grade level.

FEES AND REGISTRATION:
The cost of registration is $45.00 per team ($11.25 per student). This price includes juice and a snack).


T-SHIRTS:  
T-Shirts are for sale for $10.00 and will be available during the day of the competition. 

Deadline to register your child for a Shelton View team is December 17, 2014.

**********************************************************************************

Yes, please sign my child up!

Child’s name ______________________________   Grade__________


Please make your check for $11.25 payable to Shelton View School.

Washington State Math Championship
March 28, 2015

 (Note:  This is a team competition.  If your child signs up, but then does not attend, his/her team’s chances for success are greatly diminished.)

Questions?  Contact me at cdeuker@nsd.org


Practice problems are available at:


I strongly encourage practice for this event.  It is a long drive to Blaine, and the more prepared your child is the more they (and you) will enjoy the day.  Math Club covers the topics, but we only meet once every two weeks.  Home practice helps!

I would approach the topics in this order:

Individual
Geometry
Probability
Algebra
Mental Math

(Practice with Mental Math the last week or so is most effective.)






Please make your check for $11.25 payable to Shelton View School.

Notice that there are two parts to many of these questions.  Look back to the instruction page to see how to answer properly.

Find at least three points for each function.  x = 2, 0, -2 is a good place to start, but number sense sometimes dictates other values.
