This week we finished the topic Equations with extra practice on multiplying out single brackets including negative multipliers as well as equations with fractions and the class were reminded of the need to check their answers.
If anyone needs extra practice, the work can be found on the MyMaths website under Library – Algebra – Algebraic Manipulation, as well as Equations – Linear.
We started the topic Fractions & Percentages for which the class were already learning how to switch between fractions to percentages to decimals and vice versa from many common values. We were tackling percentage increase/decrease (profit/loss) before starting compound interest).
If anyone needs extra practice, the work can be found on the MyMaths website under Library – Number – Percentages – Percentage Change 1, as well as Change as a Percentage, and also Library – Number – Money & Finance – Compound Interest.
The class were given notice that they would have a test the first week back after the October holidays (most likely the second lesson).
