Maths N5

Topics currently being taught:

Over the course of the first week classes will consolidate and complete learning on working with Indices.

After this classes will start working on Solving Quadratic equations, this will involve solving by:

1. Factorising

2. Using the Quadratic Formulae.

Classes will then move on to find the nature of roots of a quadratic graph, by using the discriminant.

It is vital that all work set by teachers is completed by all learners. The content being taught, along with previous content will be assessed on the return to school and may be used to inform estimate grades for certification in August.
