grade 10 khan videos!

hello dearest grade 10. let's get to work on this review stuff.
i really recommend the first five videos of the sequence that starts with this one (all on solving equations). the one we started in class today about simultaneous equations is called system of equations.

a series about exponentials (exponent rules) can be found here and in the following videos after that - it is worth reviewing! he also has some workedexamples on fractions and exponents.

come see me in the mornings, thursday after school or mondays/tuesdays after 3h40 pm with extra doubts and/or hw quiz/quiz corrections.

extra sessions for grade 11 - igcse preparation

students planning to retake the igcse exams should show up at both of these meetings:

monday, october 10, 16h15 - 17h45
tuesday, october 11, 16h15 - 17h45

show what you know - october 12 session!

if you want to retake a test on wednesday, october 12, after school (15h or 15h40), please leave your name, class and the test you want to retake AS A COMMENT on this post until MONDAY, OCTOBER 10, 11pm.

your week in maths & physics, sep 27-30

long weekend in sight, and only 3 more weeks of school before the fall break!

igcse maths
we're doing some reviewing this week, and homework will be on pages 61 and 145. after that, an algebra review is on the program, inequalities and equations. hw quiz on friday. to remember some of the concepts, check out this link about solving inequalities and browse around in that list of videos.

ib maths grade 11
non-right angled trigonometry problem solving will feauture heavily this week. work on the review sets starting on page 232, do some exercises there every day. expect a test on the use of the laws of sine, cosine and area of triangles this friday. check out this different proof of the law of sines...

ib maths grade 12
do homework on pages 454-457, and do some review set questions on this chapter and the one before - there will be a big statistics test on thursday, october 6. hw quiz shall be on the pages cited above, review sets are for test preparation.  browse around in khan acedemy's list of probability classes...

ib physics grade 11
some work with data processing and excel today (tuesday), definition and concepts behind newton's second and thrid laws of motion, and some exercises with free body diagrams. khan has videos on the second law and the third law... 
ib physics grade 12
completing of the practical with lab report (DCP & CE) until wednesday; don't forget to carefully check the criteria/rubric given to you in class. stellar evolution is our topic on friday. check out the khan academy links from last week on that subject, as prepartion.

Monday, September 26, 2011

show what you know - september 28 session!

if you want to retake a test THIS WEDNESDAY, september 28, after school (15h or 15h40), please leave your name, class and the test you want to retake AS A COMMENT on this post until TUESDAY, SEMPTEMBER 27, 6pm.

thursdays:only from  15h to 15h40

have your pick and come see me!

your week in maths & physics, sep 19-23

only two weeks to go until the long weekend...

ib maths 12
time for some serious probability. still no homework, though (internal assessment is enough...)


ib maths 11
sine rule, cosine rule, area of triangles... this chapter is a little easier than the one you were tested on today (sep 19)... homework 220-224

igcse maths 10
we'll be looking at true bearings. homework will be page 331, hw quiz on friday!!
ib physics 12
astrophysics: magnitudes, cosmology, stellar evolution
ib physics 11

Tuesday, September 13, 2011

your week in maths & physics, sep 13-16

a day late, but here we go:

grade 12 physics
back to business, back to astrophysics.

grade 11 physics
kinematics and uniform acceleration is on the program. we'll be doing some running, amongst other things.

grade 12 maths
lots of exercises in statistics, with variance and standard deviation. next week, probability.

grade 11 maths
lots of exercises involving unit circle and length/area measurements, and the big moment: our test on chapter 8, friday.
grade 10 maths
focus on problem solving in rigonometry this week; if there is time, unit circle. there should be a test next week, date will be announced soon. no homework this week.
