Academic Games at ASH
Registration

January-February, Spring 2026

Grades 5-8 & 9-12

ON-SETS: On-Sets is a fast-paced, strategy-driven math game that turns abstract set theory into a hands-on mental workout. Players work within a “universe” of colored cards and use logical operations like union, intersection, difference, and complement to build precise set expressions that match a numerical goal. By placing cubes into Required, Permitted, and Forbidden sections, players actively shape the constraints of each round, forcing one another to think creatively, adapt quickly, and test multiple possible solutions. The energy of the game comes from this constant back-and-forth—challenging, revising, and proving whether a solution can exist through “Now” or “Never” calls. More than just practicing math, On-Sets feels like solving a living puzzle, sharpening spatial reasoning, logic, and strategic thinking in a competitive, high-focus environment.
