Whilst always tough learning a new method for solving alegbra, Aidan did very well at breaking down problems and changing the mental side of how we solved problems originally to how we want to solve these alegbra questions.
Fractions where the variable is in the denominator were difficult for Aidan, we'll continue to work on this together early next week.
Zara did very well at the practice test, acing both the foundation and standard sections of the test.

Zara did well at breaking down the problems, only needed a little guidance on where to start or what to do when stuck

Zara again smashed the foundation and standard sections of the practice test we went over. We also discussed some advanced problems where they could be easily worked out given the knowledge Zara has on algebraic solutions.
Zara lays out her problems very well, although a note we discussed was that her layouts are almost too detailed. Pending the marks a question is worth, we discussed removing the 'extra' solving steps in favour of showing the main steps, especially noteworthy for lower value questions
Aidan did well once we went over the basics of multiplication and division to recognise where we could perform the 'scratch' method of simplification.

We'll continue to work through worded questions to determine which information is needed, and how we need to set out the problems to find the solution/s.
