Student could now distinguish the height, width and length within 3D volumes and compound volume questions. She did a lot of the surface area calculations with limited tutor guidance and was careful to subtract overlapping surface areas of compound volumes. Student has also gotten very good with double and even simple three digit addition.
Student struggles a little with visualising complex 3D volume structures, so it helps to use a real life 3D model sometimes to map out the measurements. Student struggles in analysing and comprehending authorial meaning behind text and the significance of language techniques.

Student understood how to find area measurements using the formulas provided, quickly linking relevant formula to different shapes. Student also understood that cubic metric conversions were solved by cubing conversion factors from previous length conversions. Furthermore, student learnt calculation of 3D prisms through multiplying the front face by the extended length. This core concept helped her solve questions with minimal guidance. As for English, students sentence structure has improved and become more coherent.
Student did not do her homework. Also has difficulty identifying height, length and width in compound volume questions. For the English homework component, she still has some slight trouble spelling tier 1 words like ‘slowly’. Forgets to incorporate english personification techniques expressing emotions within her creative writing.

Student understood that probabilities were multiplied in multi event scenarios and linked mathematical working to probability trees. Student got better at distinguishing dependent events from independent and used appropriate methods as a result. As for the English component, student created some powerful ‘show not tell’ sentences and integrated higher vocabulary to enchanted her sentences.
For English, student is to practice expanding her vocabulary to implement in her stories. As vocabulary and description convey the atmosphere of the piece, student is asked to be selective about how she uses her language techniques, employing ‘personified emotion’ to convey a character’s feelings. Student should also reread her work and make corrections.

Student frequently asked questions she was unsure of and proposed theories of her own to explain some answers, showing her critical thinking and logical judgement which always flexibility for different probability questions. Student was able to distinguish an independent event from a dependent event, and which methods to use accordingly to calculate probability.
Student has yet to be familiar with more multistep probability questions, and her foundational knowledge in probability is not that strong so this will be explored in another lesson.
