What Makes Class 1 Maths Olympiad Questions Different?
School maths often checks whether a child knows a concept. Olympiad maths checks whether the child can use that concept in a new situation. For example, instead of asking only "2 + 3", an olympiad question may show 2 red balls and 3 blue balls and ask for the total number of balls.
