Rules
Each week of the challenge, students will spend about 45 to 60 minutes on the Chasing Einstein Challenge as a part of their math class. Students will either work in groups or individually depending on what the classroom teacher decides. This is what Chasing Einstein will consist of during the 45-60 minutes:
Students will earn Einstein Points (EPs) for their attitude and effort during Chasing Einstein time. The classroom teachers will observe the students and fill out a scoring form each week for their students. The goal is to earn as many EPs as possible. |
