A good day today. Kept plugging away with 9.2.2 on percentages and ratio and I seemed to have got the pitch right on this one. It really does make a difference as they stay on task and aren't so needy. I can praise them as well which they lap up.
10.2.2 was OK as well. We did cumulative frequency graphs and they settled down and got on with the work. Data Handling, as the whole area is called, is relatively easy for them to grasp as conceptually there isn't much to it - just learning a bunch of different ways of collecting, analysing and representing data. Easy.
I'm on a course tomorrow so no lesson planning. Glee. I did however lend a hand to my friend Vinay from Diageo days. He left over the summer has a mad scheme to get them to pay for him and his friends to travel around the world and drink Guinness. It might just work...
