Students have been set Bearings 3 on Hegarty Maths for Extended Study.
This must be completed by 8.30 am on Thursday 26th April.
All students have been set two short tasks to complete on Hegarty Maths in preparation for sessions next week. The deadline is for completion by Wednesday 18th April.
During the first week back C23 students will be going on fieldwork to the East Yorkshire Coast to investigate the impact of nature on the land. On Wednesday the 14th March Admiral will be going followed by Skipper on Friday 16th March. Students will spend time on the beach at both locations.
We will be leaving at 8.45am and will return to school between 3.30pm and 4pm depending on the traffic. Students will be out of school all day and as a result will need a packed lunch and warm clothing – we would recommend that students have at least 3 layers- as well as a waterproof coat. Students who receive free school meals will be provided with a packed lunch.
If you have any queries please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
The Year 8 Team
Mrs Batty, Miss Robinson, Mr Blair and Mr Voltaire.
All year 7 students have been set a personalised set of MyMaths activities for the two week break.
These are designed to stretch, introduce new concepts or prepare students for FIX when they return to school.
To login, student use: xpschool rectangle137. To access “my portal” they have a 3 digit username and 3 letter password.
Students should complete the online lesson first for each activity before they attempt the homework task. They should aim to get 80%.
The deadline is 8pm on Monday 6th March. Students have have a varied number of exercises to do – around one per day over the two week break, so please encourage your son or daughter to do little and often. Each exercise typically takes around 20 mins.
If internet access is going to be a problem, if your son or daughter is struggling with the work, has lost their username and password or if they have any other problems, please get them to email me on [email protected]
The Year 7 presentation of learning for their current learning expedition will take place on the evening of Monday 12th December. We will have more details on exact timings in due course.
It is really important that every student attends, and has someone from their family come to the event to celebrate the incredible work that they are doing.
