Mathematics with Mr Chao

Term 3 is a particularly demanding period for Year 12 students, with numerous assessments, tasks and extracurricular activities scheduled throughout the term. Despite these challenges, many students have demonstrated exceptional time management skills, particularly in completing their Mathematics assignments. Special commendation goes to those who achieved Category 3 in their OLNA Numeracy. Congratulations on their outstanding performance this term.

The ATAR pathway is inherently challenging, and I would like to commend our Year 12 Mathematics ATAR students for their persistence and hard work throughout the year. We successfully completed the course content by Week 7. Students are now encouraged to undertake a rigorous revision program in preparation for the Mathematics mock exam in Week 10. To aid in their preparation, students have been provided with past exam papers and the opportunity to attend additional after-school Prep classes. Please ensure that all past papers are completed and that two double-sided A4 pages of notes are prepared before the exam.

Week 8 marks our College Open Day, during which the Mathematics Learning Area will showcase a variety of displays. Notably, we have integrated project-based learning into our Year 11 and Year 12 Essentials Mathematics programs and assessments, contextualizing them within an agricultural setting. Each project requires students to engage in the schoolwide STEM process of investigating, designing, implementing, and evaluating. This process is repeated multiple times to ensure students develop a comprehensive understanding of the topics covered.
