Assessment Schedules

The Mathematics Resource Centre (available through Compass) provides Assessment Schedules for all Mathematics courses. While students will receive Assessment Notifications for formal Assessment Tasks via Google Classroom, reviewing the Assessment Schedule in advance can help students to begin preparing for their tasks earlier and allow them to have more time to identify areas where they may need additional study or practice.

Over the next fortnight in Mathematics, our students will be studying:

MATHS MYSTERY - Course: Year 11 Mathematics Standard

Families are encouraged to tackle this problem together. 

David's reaction time to hit the brakes when driving is 1.3 seconds. If he is travelling at a constant speed of 72 kilometres per hour, how many metres does his car travel during his reaction time before he starts to brake? Assume his vehicle travels at a constant speed before the brakes are applied.
