Focus Group

Rounding, calculator brackets, multiplication by 10, 100 & 1000, grid method multiplication, long division reduced subtraction, multiplying decimals, negative numbers, prime factors, coordinates, squared and cubed numbers. Ye gods alive, tried to help (or rather tried not to confuse) Sam to revise for his first maths test tomorrow for all the topics he's covered in the first few weeks at the big school. He ended up teaching me while I turned into Kevin, or Perry, or Waynetta. And tomorrow he has a debating focus group or whatever. Making the transition to secondary school is hard man, for me that is. "Long division by reduced subtraction", that's more of an 80's band name than a maths method surely....
