Industry Leaders in Technology and Learning
Students need a total of two hours per week to achieve the targeted learning outcomes. They can join a one hour live LevelUp (group tutoring session) or watch the recording. In addition, there is 30 minutes of self-directed Math, CS, and Robotics activities to solve and 30 minutes of building their own projects. For Kindergarten to 2nd grades, parents should join to supervise their children through the LevelUp sessions. Parent supervision for 3rd to 5th grade is optional.
Learn curricular Math, Computer Science, and Robotics to create innovative solutions with positive social impact, and launch your kids into high tech entrepreneurship!
Connecting Math to Real-life
cultivates a growth mindset for students to learn by creating innovative solutions for both the provided activities, and in building their own projects. The World Math Challenge is a bridge between standards-based math and project-based learning.
Personalized Learning
is achieved in two tracks. One is through the provided math, CS, and robotics challenge activities that are adapted to each child’s skill level. Secondly, there are new projects each of the five weeks of the challenge that allow every student to excel at their level and challenge themselves even further.
World Math Challenge Schedule
A 7-week program consisting of a weekly one-hour group tutoring session for each grade range: K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-11. Students can expect to spend a minimum of one hour of self-guided play on math, CS, and robotics activities and create their own innovative projects.
Build 3D Worlds While Learning!
Activities are engaging story-driven 3D experiences that give players the joy of progress and accomplishment
Learning becomes Cool
Students build 3D visual simulations of their own stories with the power of K12 math. The joy of Aha moments and storytelling drives kids to learn and use valuable skills today, rather than solely for the sake of success many years later.
Create and innovate
Students create innovative solutions to real-life problems and share with their friends. Using 3D part libraries of science and technology, students have the opportunity to build any game or simulation they can imagine.
Engage in Weekly Live LevelUps
In a tutor-led sessions, students show and tell their creations and innovative ideas for how to help each other improve. LevelUps provide a playground to learn STEAM: Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math principles.

Learn Computational, Systems, and Design Thinking Skills
The World Math Challenge leverages visual, auditory, reading/writing, and tactile learning styles. Students engage in trial and error, Project-based, and Quantum learning.
Understand and ace math
Students overcome their fear of math with personalized World Math Challenge activities and weekly online LevelUp sessions. LetsMod is the pioneering quantum learning playground. It visually executes any math expression and algorithm at the most basic step of thinking.
Learn CS, Robotics, AI
LetsMod breaks boundaries by connecting Math, CS, Robotics, and 3D Geometry centered around the core concept of Computational Thinking. This 3D environment enables learning systems thinking with the ability to assign physical effects expressed in math through distributed and connected parts.
Real-time Reports for Parents.
Regular reports of your child’s skill progression, measured by awarding badges and leaderboards, provide a holistic view of your child’s learning and improvement. Seeing your child’s 3D creations provides insight to better understand their state of mind and readiness for their academic career.
STEAM Standards
World Math Challenge activities are aligned with National Curriculum Math Standards in most countries, as well as CSTA (Computer Science Teacher Association) Computer Science Standards. The key focus is on the Computational Thinking and Creative Problem Solving aspects of the standards.
K-2nd Grade
K-2 math activities start with counting and expand to basic number sense and arithmetic operations. In CS and Robotics basic movements, and sequential logic is introduced.
3rd-5th Grades
Activities start with mastery in number sense and arithmetic operations, and expand to creative problem-solving. More geometric algorithmic concepts are introduced in CS and Robotics.
6th-8th Grades
The activities cover Algebra and geometry with emphasis on real-life applications. In CS and robotics, conditional logic and full robotics are covered. Students animate 3D Parts with math, opening the door to model STEAM.
9th-11th Grades
Activities dive into more advanced algebra, geometry, and calculus, from a computational point of view. All dynamics types are covered. Advanced algorithms and robotics are introduced.
World Math Challenge has three seasons, Spring, Summer, and Fall, each lasting about four months with personalized activities in Math, Robotics, and CS that earn Polycoin and XPs. The peak of activities is in the last seven weeks of each season.
In each of the seven weeks, students join weekly one-hour LevelUp live sessions (grade ranges K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-11) In the last five weeks, students submit one machine per week for the leaderboards. In the final week, students create a Challenge project focused on an innovative solution for one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Each season’s final leaderboard is based upon both the ranking of the XP’s earned and their final project machine.

Readiness for Innovation Economy
Most activities are engaging story driven 3d experiences that give the players sense of progress and accomplishment.
Each student submits projects to create an innovative solution to one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals and build a robust portfolio for applications to top universities.
Storytelling and SDG Projects
Each student with the premium upgrade will submit five projects during five weeks. Students use storytelling and design thinking, do research, and leverage skills in math, CS, and robotics, to build an innovative solution to one of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals as their World Math Challenge project. They will have an extensive set of part libraries.
Projects Sharing and Leaderboards
Students share their weekly projects with all other students in their community and globally. Students can show and discuss their machines in the weekly live LevelUp sessions. Projects are ranked on leaderboards based on the voting of other students and Challenge judges. Students can optionally join their teacher’s class on LetsMod to benefit from their mentorship.
Final Leaderboard and PolyFest
The final project on innovative solutions to SDGs are ranked by other students and Judges. The final Challenge leaderboard ranking is half based on the final project ranking and half based on the XP gained in the Challenge math, CS, and Robotics activities. The top winners get invited to a live PolyFest session to present their machines.
See it for Yourself
Enthusiasm for STEAM skyrockets with the World Math Challenge, and the kids are eager to come back for more! From the thousands of K-11 students who participated in the 2020 Fall US Challenge, over 1,200 have received badges in Computational Thinking, System Thinking, Design Thinking, and Experiential Learning. More than 600 students were selected from the Fall 2020 Honor Leaderboard in the US, Azerbaijan, Kenya, Oman, Rwanda, India, and Palestine to receive scholarships for the Global Innovation Challenge and become eligible to join LetsMod Innovation Hub. Countries that do not have a national partner yet, participate in the World Math Challenge.
The World Math Challenge follow-up programs leverage the projects recognized on the leaderboards to help students with their applications to top universities.
Practicing Design Thinking
Connecting curricular math to real-life problem solving and create innovative solutions in a portfolio of projects addressing the UN Sustainable Development Goals. LetsMod Portfolio will benefit students in their applications to top universities.
Impactful Internship Experiences
LetsMod Innovation Hub accepts World Challenge honor leaderboard winners for internship programs in Design, Marketing, or Content/Mentorship tracks for a year. These experiences are also valuable to reflect in the top university applications.
Entrepreneurship Camp
World Math Challenge honors leaderboard winners will be eligible to apply for the Global Innovation Catalyst 8-week Entrepreneurship Camp for 5th-12th graders. GIC has other programs Certificated by the Stanford Center for Professional Development.
