Here is a copy of the Revision Topics for the year 10 exams - you have a printed copy.

Remember to plan a programme of revision for the Easter holidays so that you are doing 'little and often'.

There are lots of hints opposite to help you revise.

NO CALCULATORS!!

 

Revision hints:
You can use the following for your revision:

Exercise books, homework books, MyMaths, BBC bitesize, friends, family......

  • your exercise books contain lots of worked examples. Why not copy them onto scrap paper, do them and then check your answer......?
  • you can repeat some of the exercises you have done for homework
  • for number work you can make up some examples up of your own and check them on the calculator.
  • do MyMaths lessons/worksheets on the test topics. Check under 'My Results' for all the ones you have done, click on them and do them again!
  • there are lots of internet sites that you can look at e.g. BBC bitesize
  • ask someone at home to make up some questions for you

But remember....there is only one way to revise maths...and that is to DO MATHS!!
