5th Grade

This is how you play the game. The goal is to earn as many Einstein Points (EPs) as you can. You earn Einstein Points (EPs) by working hard and trying your best. EPs are earned by playing the Prodigy Game, filling out the Exit Ticket, and Ms. Grossenburg may give out EPs each week for those students who are doing an exceptional job working to become great mathematicians. Your EPs will be combined with EPs earned by your math mentors at DSU. The team with the highest average at the end of 8 weeks will be crowned the Chasing Einstein Challenge champ! Check out the schedule below for the exact dates.
