4M1: QUADRATICS – Assessment. ARITHMETIC – We practised our fractions skills by playing Equate.
2M2: EQUATIONS – We created some equations for others to solve. Rules: 1) There must be “letters” on both sides of the equals sign. 2) There must be “loose numbers” on both sides of the equals sign. 3) All “loose numbers” used in the equation must be between 1 and 30 inclusive. 4) All coefficients must be between 1 and 10 inclusive. 5) The solution must be a whole number between 0 and 20 inclusive.
3M5: NUMERACY – Pupils either sat a National 3 Numeracy assessment on www.sqasolar.org or tried to get as many questions correct for the skills that were set on www.SumDog.com.
NAT5: ALGEBRA & VOLUMES – We competed against each other to try and solve the padlock challenges and win the sweets.
