Math Club

Math Club

  • Vancouver School for Science and Technology (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Math Club is a place for like-minded, motivated upper elementary students to come together and experience a fresh, engaging, and challenging approach to math. The format: before each class, students will be asked to watch a short YouTube math video from a widely respected and beloved math channel such as Numberphile, Stand-up Maths, or Vi Hart. We will be selecting videos that cover an unexpected or intriguing mathematical idea which is challenging but accessible. During class, we will unpack the video as a group and then students will engage in hands-on activities that reenact, extend, or challenge the video. Afterward, students will receive practice problems and a difficult challenge problem for students to mull over at home between sessions.

Students can join the Club at any time!

  • Choose from 2 different times: Sunday Morning Math Club (10:00 - 11:30am every other Sunday) or Sunday Afternoon Math Club (12:30 - 2:00pm every other Sunday).

  • For students in grades 5-7.

Thanks to a generous donation from Judi Hess, this subsidized, knowledge-packed camp will be a week-long experience where students will immerse themselves in two forms of creative technology: Computer Numeric Controlled Tool Fabrication and Game Development and Coding.

We will also be awarding two $1,000 scholarships towards Grade 8 VISST tuition for the best projects.

  • March 15 - 19, 2027; 9:00am-4:00pm
