Year 8 - Math Term 2 2021

Assalamu'alaikum Wr. Wb Parents and Caregivers

This term in Mathematics, the Year 8's have explored the Pythagoras' theorem and fractions, decimals, percentages and financial mathematics. The students have shown a special interest in financial mathematics and particularly enjoyed exploring profit and losses. Due to the nature of the learning, we were fortunate to make connections between the real world and curriculum to increase the meaningfulness of the learning. I look forward to their on-going success as they progress towards their major financial mathematics assessment next term. On another note, to add an element of competition, we have also incorporated weekly Kahoot quizzes into our class program. These experiences have both challenged and entertained the students.

A kind reminder to all parents and caregivers that the students receive daily homework and also weekly quizzes to consolidate the learning.

I pray you enjoy a restful and enjoyable school break. I look forward to meeting you all in the near future, inshAllah. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me via dilek.boduk@irfancollege.nsw.edu.au

Warm regards,

Ms. Dilek Bödük
