We're excited to invite your class to participate in the second-annual mathematics challenge! Last year we saw schools from over 80 countries register, and it's looking to be another big year of learning & prizes!
Students can win a class pizza party or a virtual lesson with former NASA astronaut Ron Garan!
The winners of the Grand Prize Lucky Draw, winning the webinar with NASA Astronaut Ron Garan, are the students of the Cornelia Connelly Center! With less than 100 students, they managed to rack up a total of nearly 400,000 points - a monumental effort!
Special mention also to the students of Delta Global School, who took the top spot for the second year running with a mindblowing total score of over 600,000 points!

No! It's completely free to join. If you don't already use Mathspace, you'll get access to a free account which you can continue to use for free forever.
Yes! Once you've registered, simply send your colleagues a link to this page so they can sign up too - the more classes there are using Mathspace at your school, the more likely you'll win the Grand Prize.
All prizes are awarded through a lucky draw, with the final position on the weekly or overall leaderboard determining the number of tickets allocated to the class/school. The allocated tickets are each numbered and a random number generator will be used to determine the number of the winning ticket.
Classes can only win one of the three weekly class prizes; if a class that has previously won a weekly prize is drawn again in a subsequent week's draw, the prize will be redrawn. However, winning a class prize does not prevent the school from also winning the grand prize.
The winning class of each week's Pizza Party will receive a delivery of pizzas to the school. The number of pizzas will depend on the number of students in the winning class but is capped at 15 pizzas. Following the announcement of the winning class each week, a member of the Mathspace team will reach out to the teacher of that class to arrange the delivery at a convenient time. In the event that there are no local pizza delivery companies available, an alternative prize will be provided.
Ron Garan is a former NASA Astronaut, F-16 fighter pilot, aquanaut and humanitarian. He is also the author of a number of books, an engaging keynote speaker and a passionate advocate for the environment. You can learn more about Ron and watch his latest inspirational video, produced by Big Think, on our partner page: Space Math.
