At the end of Term 1, we had a brainstorming activity to list some strategies on how to improve our maths. Working in groups, students listed strategies pertaining to Homework, Assessment preparation and Class Behaviour. Here's what the students came up with:
Homework
In-class Behaviour
Homework
- Practice, practice, practice
- Revise topics on notes or textbook
- Self-correct - learn from mistakes
- Seek help - class buddy, parent, teacher, Munch (Maths at Lunch)
- Space out time for study
- Work on weaknesses, e.g. re-do exercises you found hard
- Seek help (see above)
- Do the Practice tests
- Revise topics on notes or textbook
In-class Behaviour
- Put hand up to ask if you don't understand
- No unnecessary talking
- Take notes
