Three Day Workshop

Hey parents, let’s get our girls excited about math! Enroll your daughter in Orlando Math Circle’s Three Day Workshop, where she will engage in fun, enriching activities to challenge her mathematical mind to solve problems creatively. Of course, boys are welcome too.

School math lessons can only give our students so much. Beyond the classroom, students need time to explore, to be creative and play with math in an environment where measures of ‘productivity’ do not lie in the right answer, but in the process of getting there with expectations for fun discovery.

Guest Speaker - Dr. Jami Valentine

One of the ways OMC engages students in mathematics is by bringing guest speakers to discuss math-related careers and projects to the students. On March 18th, Dr. Jami Valentine, a physicist who works for the US Patent and Trademark office, gave a talk to the Meadowbrook Middle School students. Dr. Valentine earned a master’s degree at Brown University, then went to Johns Hopkins University, where she studied the spin properties of rare earth metals under Professor C.L. Chien. In 2006 Jami became the first African-American woman to earn a Ph.D. in physics from Johns Hopkins University.
