Learning math the fun way, at the Library

Math can be fun and the Racine Public Library 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 textbook.

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.
