The Mathematics Pentathlon is a program of interactive problem-solving games, supportive curricular and instructional activities, and assessment tools for students in grades K-7, divided into four divisions. Each division consists of five games.

This motivational program strengthens basic math concepts and skills, aligns with national and state mathematics standards, and stimulates creative thinking while developing problem-solving skills.
