Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions! Some kids might hear those words and run for cover...especially in the summer months. But math can be fun and the Racine Public Library, 75 Seventh St., will prove it during a one-hour math literacy workshop for kids in grades 1-5. The program will be held on Tuesday, July 7 from 6:30-7:30 p.m. in the Youth Services Dept.
In this workshop, presented by a student from Prairie School, kids will explore the entertaining and practical ways in which we use math on a daily basis. Using juggling, fishing, baseball and pie 11-year-old Sandeep Reddy will share the ways in which math can be pure entertainment.
Recently selected as a 2009 Finalist in the NSF National Math Bee, Sandeep has achieved many math awards and accomplishments ...including successfully completing EVERY problem in an 800 page text book!
The program is free and open to the public. No registration is necessary. Questions may be directed to the Racine Public Library, 262.636.9245.
