Middle school students are invited to Kansas State University’s Manhattan campus for a special day of interactive workshops with mathematics faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate students in celebration of Sonia Kovalevsky Day. Participants will take part in hands-on activities through a series of engaging workshops on exciting mathematical topics, including:

• Using networks and solving puzzles in “Winning the Dollar Game”
• Learning how secret messages are created and cracked in “Spy Game: Shadow at the Museum”
