your week in maths & physics, feb 14-18

one more week, then we have a week off - pretty decent, ain't it?

igcse maths

we're starting with a new phase in our classes, a phase completely focused on the igcse exams. the teaching of some new material (almost exclusively for extended candidates) will go hand in hand with the mocks from last month and other past exams and specimen papers we will be looking at in detail. the completion of these papers will be a main element in the grading process, and the few tests we will have in this last term will be mocks. double classes will be seperate, friday classes will be every second week, but for twice the time. only on tuesdays shall we meet as a complete class. extended students will have a class monday right after 3 pm, starting today. mostly, your homework will be the completion of papers, as announced in class or on this blog. stay tuned!
