- bus stop method seems well understood and was done consistently correctly. - most of the area questions of hw were correct. Well done with splitting the harder shapes up into smaller easier shapes.

- on some shape questions, Taylor made (understandable) assumptions regarding the lengths of some lines meaning that whilst her methods were correct, her answers were slightly off. (For example, the length of the hypotenuse of a triangle) See HW sheet for explicit examples.

division strong shapes sheet went fairly well - can determine a vertex and right angles on a shape as well as the name of the shape (parallelogram/hexgaon/pentagon)

Thomas tells me that they were studying shapes this week. We covered different types of triangles briefly which he perhaps may have only just started in class but distinguishing between different triangle types could be improved.

- multiplication go over went well. Taylor understands the algorithm it seems more like silly mistakes as opposed to a lack of understanding. - perimeter and area of rectangles and squares is also understood

- areas of other shapes e.g. triangles and trapeziums. Getting used to splitting more difficult shapes up into smaller shapes that she is familiar with is a good method that could do with some practice.

Solid on standard questions asking to divide x by y. Seems to grasp the idea of division as "How many Y's fit into X".

Worded questions. When the question is phrased in a sentence, needs some practice on extracting the actual division question out of that sentence.
