Math Puzzle For students in Grades Five to Eight...

Fill in numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 into boxes to make the equations work.

Best Subjects - Solution

The subject Karen likes best is taught by Miss Dexter (clue 1). Gina's best subject is home economics (clue 2). Mr Carter teaches science (3). The subject Amy likes best is taught by Miss Jones (4). Miss Jones doesn't teach art (4), PE (2) or science (3), so music. By elimination, Chloe likes science best, Miss Dexter teaches art and Gina's teacher is Miss Simpson.

Halloween - Solution

Lantern B was made by a 10 year old boy (clue 1). Lantern A was made by Natalie (clue 2). Justin made lantern C (3 and above), so Tim is the 10 year old boy and his lantern is at B (1,5 and above). By elimination, Melissa's lantern is D and the one made by the 12 year old is C (4 and above). Natalie isn't 13 (2), so 11. By elimination, Melissa is 13.

Fish Friends - Solution

Fish A is younger than Angel and older than Jaws, so fish A is Bubbles (clues 1 and 2) and is 7 months old, Angel is 8 months and Jaws is 6 months (clue 1). Jaws isn't pictured at B (clue 1), so C. By elimination, Angel is pictured at B.

RIS Young Scientists

Last weekend our young scientists went to KAIST in Daejeon for their first Olympiad preparation sessions. We met Prof. Cafer T. Yavuz and his assistants , Dr. Sonia Zulfiqar and Dr. Hasmukh Patel, talked about the projects, and started to formulate our plan of action.

We were also very fortunate to meet  Prof. William A. Goddard, III from the very prestigious Caltech University in the USA.

Professor Goddard is a world-renowned Chemistry and Physics scholar, and he was kind enough to give us some of his time and thoughts about our projects.
It really was a great way for the RIS teams to start their path to the Olympiads.

RIS MASCOT

The ideals of R.I.S. are seen in our mascot – the dolphin. Dolphins are often regarded as the one of the earth’s most intelligent animals and at the same time one of the most compassionate.

Dolphins that live in families or “pods” are known to stay and protect their wounded or sick. They teach their children to use tools such as putting a sea sponge over their noses to protect them. Dolphins can even mime, solve puzzles and recognize themselves in mirrors.

Above all they love to play and their play is a form of teaching and learning for them all. They especially love to play with humans and some have stayed and played in one area for many years.

Co-operative, intelligent, creative, compassionate, brave, playful, graceful and free, the dolphin brings us joy.
