Have a nice week end 🙂

I know that all of you are still looking forward for the test result. My progression of checking yours are 75% (per today). However, since the lesson for next week will be taken over by Mr. Yulian as well as this week, I ask your understanding to wait until Oct 31, the date that your test paper result will be handed in to you.

Please be patient……….and thank you for your patience 🙂

And now, how’s your perimeter knowledge so far? 🙂 We covered about perimeter of plane shapes including circle and sector. Next week, you will jump in to Area problems.

Do you still remember of quadrilaterals, about polygons? There are so many things that should be memorized by you. Those are not covered in class anymore since you had learned so far in lower grade. However, I posted in my class http://mathematics.hedy.me with some notes, some links and some homework (the homework online must be done, please browse them by yourself to check the time taken and the length of available time).

What else?…hmmmm…….. Don’t forget to submit in to available DROP BOX, your both tasks Research on Polygons and Proposal Project, as the latest will be on Monday, 24 Oct 2011, at 11.50 pm.

Research on Polygons ……. 61 students have already submitted the task. I’m still waiting for the other 44 students. Are you one of them?

Proposal Project …….. Thanks to Darren, Natasha, Jane, Ryan (9.1), Jessica, Marsha, Monica, Emilio (9.2), Johnson, Canisia, Reynold, Stefia, William (9.3), Dea, Delvin, Gilbert, Clara, Madeleine (9.4) who have submitted the proposal.
