Maths self evaluation- revised

You should have recently recieved an email with a maths self-evaluation sheet attached (let me know if you didn't). The sheet is for you to fill out and identify which areas of maths you need to concentrate on.

I want you to save this document in you own googledocs and invite me to collaborate. You do this by clicking collaborate (top right-hand of page) and put in my email address. Please include your name and the initials- MSE.

Here's a copy.

5, 3, 1

Show me that you understand each learning objective and put 5, 3 or 1 for each one.

5- means you understand it completely and could teach someone else
3- means you're pretty sure but could do with a bit more practise
1- means you haven't a clue and need help.

I don't mind which number you put and neither should you. When you know what you know, you'll know what to work on and I'll have a better idea of what to help you with.

Please complete your copy for the Tuesday after half term.

You can download a copy of the document here.

Essential facts for Space Project:


  • It takes 24 hrs for the Earth to rotate on its axis.
  • It tokes 365 and a quarter for the Earth to go round the sun.
  • It takes about 28 days for moon to go round the Earth
  • Shadows are shortest in the middle of the day
  • Shadows are longest at the beginning and end of day
Please add these to you space project. Cut and paste is fine.

Thanks to Joe E for the heads up.
