Lesson 1: Everyone has a new timetable to follow, so I cannot blame the students for not having their materials on the first day of school since they didn't have A Math on Mondays previously. So, we did revision instead and I got them to draw one-page-per-chapter mindmaps that sums up all that they need to know for the first 3 chapters. We managed to complete only 2 during the one-period lesson. The 3rd chapter should be quite manageable for them to do on their own.
Lesson 2: We spent a period going through the questions that they had while attempting their 126 questions in their May/Jun Holiday Homejoy. It's heartening to see that most of them attempted the questions to their very best, instead of starting on them only when school started. Still, there are a few who are quite adamant in not doing ANYTHING. Deadline for the assignment is next week; I'll see how many parents I have to call.
Lesson 3: We began by recapping the rules/laws of indices. They had covered all these in their E Math in semester 1. I also insisted that those who didn't bring their notebooks stand. This must be a bad day for some; a couple of my very hardworking and conscientious ones forgot theirs and had to stand as well. We managed to practies on some of the questions in the text and there were some time left for them to attempt the homejoy and clarify doubts if any.
