[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks!! All comments are very helpful. We may try some middle school AOPS competition books. I really liked AOPS intro books, as it is designed that we can figure out by just reading/doing. In the past, I looked at math contest Qs samples online, and thought contests are more about just calculating, but I may be wrong. Math Circle books sounds also good, is that Moscow or Berkley? There are many publishers? And, yes, we will consider joining math club, and DS is enjoying the coding.[/quote] If you google mathematical circle library you will see the site from AMS: https://bookstore.ams.org/mcl Anna Burago's books are absolutely amazing (Mathematical Circle Diaries, vol I and II). and is probably a great complement to AoPS. Some contests are all about calculating, but some have incredibly interesting problems. It's just a matter of picking and choosing. With the knowledge from the Intro series, your child will be now be able to appreciate many of the questions from middle school contests such as Mathcounts and the AMC 8 (and even some of the high school contests, such as AMC 10). The key is not think of it as a contest (unless he really wants to compete and time himself, etc), but mostly just browse the past papers and pick interesting questions. All past amc's and their solutions (along with multiple user submitted sols) are found for free on the aops website.[/quote]
