1. What is the idea of the project?
The idea of the project is that we will find a partner class for you with students of the same age. Then you will exchange your math problems with that class. So, we can say that there are two big parts of this project.
1. Your class writes math problems about clowns and sends them to the partner-class. (We kindly ask you to send copies of all this worksheets to us).
2. You receive the math problems that a partner-class wrote. So, your students solve that problems.

2. Are problems limited to any particular concept?
No. Your students can write any problems or just math tasks they like. It is better to connect these problems with a math topic you are studying at the moment. But we kindly ask you to write problems that your partner-class will be able to solve.

3. Why to send copies of the worksheets?
Because we would like to have a collection of all worksheets and then to publish a book with these problems and pictures.

4. How to present the work?
It is better to present it in MicrosoftWord like our worksheets. So, a teacher of a partner-class will easily print it. We will also just put your worksheets into the Web, so another teachers will have the opportunity to use them. We also kindly ask you to draw black-and-white pictures because the booklet will be black-and-white. Your colourful pictures we will present on this site, but we won't have possibility to print them.

5. What will be 1st of April?
We would like to make special worksheets that you will be able to print and to give to your children 1st of April. That day we would like all participants have a great mathematical party. All students will be in clowns costumes and they will solve math problems about clowns. You will be able to have a competition in your class and any other activities.
