The Missouri Elementary Mathematics Contest: Student Performance on Questions That Reflect NCTM Standards
Keyword(s):
The Missouri Council of Teachers of Mathematics (MCTM) has conducted an annual elementary mathematics contest for students in grades 4, 5, and 6 since 1985. Twenty-five sites throughout Missouri host regional contests in which school-selected participants (three to five per grade level, depending on the number of students) compete in grade-specific tests that measure mathematical estimation and computation, conceptual understanding, and problem-solving ability. The top three winners from each test event and at each grade level are then invited to compete against the winners from other regional contests at a state finals competition.
