During the spirited contests, elementary and middle school students will compete against classmates and students from neighboring schools, using their math intelligence to advance through timed video games – with hundreds of their classmates cheering them on. The competitions not only allow the opportunity to demonstrate math proficiency but students will also compete for bragging rights as well as prizes. The winner at each tournament will win a FLIP HD Camcorder. Second-place finishers will receive a Fujifilm FinePix Z30 Digital Camera while a $50 Target gift card will be awarded to the third-place honorees. Teachers will also be acknowledged for their contribution in the classroom with Amazon gift certificates.
