Students have four 'MyMaths' tasks set - Mean and Mode, Divide Decimals by Whole Numbers, Area of a Triangle and Single Brackets.

These should be completed over the holidays ready for the new term.

Students can also use this as a chance to catch up with those overdue tasks (they appear Red in the task list.) and comeback and start fresh.


Enjoy the holidays.

 
This is a revision and consolidation task. It requires students to recall facts from a number of topics such as area, volume, mulitplying and dividing by ten.

Students have over a week to complete this task so if there are any difficulties they can come and ask for help.

The exercise should be completed with working at the back of their jotter.

Good Luck.

 
Students should attempt to complete the inequality task set on mymaths.co.uk.

Remember to try as soon as possible so there is time to get help if you need it.

Several students have shown difficulties with the task and they should use this opportunit


 
Students in my class have been under-going a joint English and Maths department project researching famous mathematicians. They have been working hard researching in Maths and should be getting ready to give their presentations next week in English.

Some interesting facts found so far: John Napier accussed the Pope of being the Anti-Christ and also developed logarithims. Einstien couldn't talk until he was 3 years old.

I'm looking forward to hearing other strange and unusual information about these famous mathematicians.
