Students with low skills in mathematics receive additional support in lessons as well as in small intervention groups. This is an excellent opportunity for students to build their confidence in the subject and to become more fluent in key number skills. In addition to this GCSE revision sessions will take place in the spring and summer terms in the lead up to exams. PERSONALISED LEARNING Geometry – sine and cosine rule, area of non-right angle triangles Algebra – solve by completing square & quad formula Statistics – histograms and cumulative frequency graphs Algebra – equation of a circle Algebra – argue mathematically PERSONALISED LEARNING END OF COURSE PERSONALISED LEARNING END OF COURSE PERSONALISED LEARNING Opportunities for stretch and challenge in your subject this year: Throughout KS4, pupils will learn to develop their problem solving and mathematical reasoning skills, as there will be a greater emphasis on these in the new GCSEs. Enthusiastic mathematicians who have already developed significant skills will have the opportunity to compete in the UKMT national mathematics competitions, both individually and as a team. In addition, there will be lunch time sessions during which students will practise solving stimulating mathematical challenges. How can you support your child in this subject? You can take an active role in helping your child develop their numeracy skills. You can do this by ensuring that your child has a set amount of time every week to learn and revise their times tables and work on the key skills of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division with whole numbers, decimals, fractions and ratios. There are resources to support you with this; Cheshunt school subscribes to the website ‘mymaths.co.uk’ which is an excellent online resource which students can use to revise, learn new material and practise the skills they have learned in lessons. This website is sometimes used to set homework, however students can still use the site to support them with any paper based homework as well as to revise the work covered in class. The website can be accessed with the following details: username: cheshunt password: equation Students will be given a second level username and password unique to them.
