AGENDAThe Núcleo de Estudos Olímpicos (NEO) of Escola Internacional de Alphaville announced this month the opening of the following registrations:20ª Olimpíada Brasileira de Matemática das Escolas Públicas e Privadas (OBMEP)A OBMEP (Brazilian Mathematics Olympiad of Public Schools) is a national project aimed at Brazilian public and private schools, carried out by the Instituto de Matemática Pura e Aplicada – IMPA (Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics) and promoted with funding from the Ministério da Educação – MEC (Ministry of Education) and the Ministério da Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação – MCTI (Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation).The main objective of OBMEP is to encourage the study and teaching of Mathematics through problems that stimulate students' logical reasoning and creativity.Target audience: students from Teens 6 to High 3Preparatory classes for registered students with the Math team: Mr. Carlos (Teens 6 & 7 and Teens 8 & 9) and Mr. Ricardo (High School).Link here28ª Olimpíada Brasileira de Astronomia e Astronáutica (OBA)A OBA (Brazilian Astronomy and Astronautics Olympiad) is held annually by the Sociedade Astronômica Brasileira (SAB – Brazilian Astronomical Society) in partnership with the Agência Espacial Brasileira (AEB – Brazilian Space Agency), involving students from all grades of elementary and high school throughout the national territory and abroad, as long as they are in Portuguese-speaking schools. OBA aims to foster young people's interest in Astronomy, Astronautics, and related sciences, and to promote the dissemination of basic knowledge in a playful and cooperative way.Target audience: students from Teens 6 to High 3Preparatory classes for registered students with the Physics and Math team: Mr. Carlos (Teens 6 & 7), Mr. Caio (Teens 8, 9 & High School).Link here19ª Olimpíada Brasileira de Foguetes (OBAFOG)The Brazilian Rocket Olympics (OBAFOG) is the new name for the Brazilian Rocket Show (MOBFOG). OBAFOG is an entirely experimental Olympics, as it consists of building and launching rockets from as far away as possible. Rockets and launch pads must be built by students individually or in teams of up to three.Target audience: students from Teens 6 to High 3Rocket-building workshops with Mr. Anderson (STEAM/Design).Link here3ª Olimpíada de Português (OP)The main objective of the OP is to help strengthen students' interpretative and expressive skills by promoting the standard use of the Portuguese language, interpreting classic texts of excellence and also reflecting on the various linguistic aspects of Portuguese.Target audience: Teens 6 to Teens 9Single stagePreparatory classes for participants with Portuguese language teachers: Mr. Thiago (Teens 6 and 7) and Ms. Juliane (Teens 8 and 9).Link hereIn the NEO+ range, exclusively for multi-award-winning students and students with exceptional academic performance, at the invitation of the subject teachers for each Olympic competition:4ª Olimpíada Mirim - OBMEPThe Olimpíada Mirim - OBMEP is an initiative of IMPA - Instituto de Matemática Pura e Aplicada (Institute of Pure and Applied Mathematics) and receives support from B3 Social.
