How SuMON works

Start with Slow Problems

Worksheets and activities are sent by post to the student biweekly. Hints are added to every problem, in case you are stuck!

Think and Do

Next 14 days are for thinking and working on the problems. Students submit detailed work, not just answers. Submission is done online.

Get Detailed Grades

Our faculty team grades your work, with detailed comments.

Next Set

Graded worksheets as well as new ones are sent every 2 weeks. 

6 month contest

Once you work through SuMON for 6 months, you will be eligible to participate in SuMON Olympiad.

Slow Problems

The SuMON process introduces the children to non-routine problem solving similar to Mathematical Olympiads. 

These problems are not repetitive in nature. The goal is not to feed the children with mechanical formulas. Instead, we make the problems and activities thought provoking in nature. Hence the kids learn how to 'think'.

Math Olympiads

Math Olympiads such as American Math Competitions, University of Waterloo Contests, MOEMS require kids to think out of the box. 

The SuMON program is useful to get the kids started in this journey. The problem sets are designed to create necessary foundation for olympiads in long run.

Devil is in the detail

We encourage students to write detailed solutions and their thought processes. This means they are supposed to write more than 'just the final answer'. Some of the questions and activities are designed to attract elaborate response. 

Our faculty team then grades these responses with detailed comments. 

4 Levels of SuMON

Level 1 SuMON Slow Math
Novice

Level 1 - usually for Grades 4 or below

At this stage we focus on spatial and numerical patterns. We also encourage activity and experiment driven problems.
LEARN MORE
Beginner

Level 2 - usually for Grades 5, 6

At this stage we plant the seeds of geometry and elementary counting principles. Some properties of integers are brought into play.

Level 2
Level 3 SuMON
Intermediate

Level 3 - usually for Grades 7, 8

At this stage, we go through geometry and combinatorics at a greater detail. Some amount of algebra, algorithmic reasoning and statistical methods are also introduced.

Senior

Level 4 - usually for Grades 9 and above

At this stage we get into more complex ideas from geometry, number theory, algebra and combinatorics. Some elements from computer science and statistics are also used.
