Camp Pythagoras: A Mathematical Adventure

Camp Pythagoras is where middle schoolers team up to play with big ideas. It is a summer experience that engages inquisitive students entering grades 6 through 8 who love patterns, puzzles, and the thrill of discovery. Campers join a vibrant community of young mathematicians who explore deep mathematical ideas through collaboration, conversation, and creative problem solving. This isn’t traditional math class—there are no lectures, worksheets, or rote procedures. Instead, campers dive into rich problems, uncover surprising connections, and develop their own ideas in an atmosphere of intellectual play and joyful exploration. At Camp Pythagoras, every person is a mathematician. Each day, we’ll tackle a new problem: Bulgarian Solitaire, Sona, Nim, a Mars Mission, and a list of numbers.
