Angie Lee, a fifth grade student at Simmons Elementary School, won the Montgomery County Math 24 Tournament held on May 26, 2022. In the Math 24 game, players are shown cards with four numbers on them and need to make the number 24 by adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. Each number must be used, but each number can be used only once. Beyond strengthening procedural fluency, the Math 24 game expands strategic thinking and adaptive reasoning abilities, laying the groundwork for higher-order math skills.
