The first Math Team meeting was in early October, but it’s still not too late to join. There are many great reasons that you should join Math Team.

One reason you should join Math Team is that it’s helpful to have math skills in life. Math Team can help you in your math classes by giving you more experience in math and can even get you ahead in your math classes by learning math that you may not have learned in class yet. Math skills are also good because many jobs involve math and will require you to know how to do that math beforehand.

Having math skills isn’t just helpful for knowing how to do math; it also helps with logical reasoning and problem-solving skills. These are valuable skills for almost every future career, even careers that don’t directly involve math.

Another reason you should join the Math Team is that it helps get into college. Participating in Math Team competitions is great for your college applications because it shows that you went above and beyond to learn about math. If you do well in the competitions, it can be even better.

A final reason why you should join Math Team is because the team is very welcoming to everyone. Even if you think that you aren’t very good at math, you can still join Math Team because you will be able to learn everything you need to know because of the help from the teachers and other students on the team. Anyone can practice and learn math in Math Team.

Math Team is great in many ways and it’s open to join! I hope that after reading this you will consider joining Math team. It’s easy to get started with Math Team by just showing up on a Monday or Wednesday in either Mr. McKay or Mr. Easty’s room.
