Went over all the concepts from these topics and Jack quickly sorted out where he was making his mistakes and finished the session very positively. We expect that he will have his final test sometime next week

Went over ways of finding the gradient and y-intercept from a table of data points, which Jack did well in, even changed the method to suit his way of problem solving, then balanced chemical equations and strategies for balancing equations and again once he had the steps sorted, he went well and finished with similarity, congruence and the tests for these. In all we covered a lot and Jack was doing well in all these areas
He is doing well at this stage, so next week, we will start revision for his final test for the year

I hope he can better in two days time, otherwise I hope his family can have a medical certificate back-up plan
