Episode Description: The day starts with Max trying to score goals on the soccer field – but ends with the Problem Solvers trying to meet their goal of finding the next server. This takes them back to Ancient Greece and the legendary Colossus of Rhodes statue. There the foursome of Max, Molly, Katrina and Charlene use unit conversions, time calculations, and problem-solving to outsmart history without changing it. But when a shadowy figure appears, they realize the POGs may be closer than ever.
Math Concepts: Circumference and diameter of a circle; Using π (Pi) to calculate diameter from circumference; Unit conversion (feet to inches, cubits to inches/feet);
Area comparison using real-world objects (soccer balls vs. goal size); Multiplication strategies (mental math using ×11); Time calculationsHistory/Geography Concepts: The Colossus of Rhodes and the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World; Ancient Greece (Rhodes, 230 BCE); The Siege of Rhodes; Ancient measurement systems (cubits); Greek mythology (Helios, Oracle of Delphi)
