Yesterday:
I only summarised Act 1 of Macbeth and I'm so glad I did the blurting method for RE cuz I definitely remembered it :u:.
But still... I wasn't really productive (that may be because I probs chose to go out somewhere with my mum for ages .. ughh)

Today:
I went to Spanish intervention at skl in the morning for 2 hrs... was fine ig
I made notes on C1 and did exam questions. Also, I summarised Act 2 of Macbeth
I JUST REALISED I HAVE LOTS OF HMW TO DO IN THE SPACE OF 1 ONE WEEK

Drop the Kumon and reconsider the level 2 FMaths which is not needed.

You don't need Kumon - it's too much if you are aiming for all 9s. The level 2 isn't worth it if it risks other subjects not being 9s ... I teach in a selective school and we don't offer it. Our GCSE and A level grades show it is not needed to do well.

Apparently doing further maths is meant to for people who want to do A-level maths.. that's what my teacher said.

It doesn't though ... why wouldn't we do it if we felt it would help? What we do is ensure the full GCSE spec is taught and spend time practising the hard stuff. FMaths includes topics that aren't even in A level!

Yesterday:
Halloween ofc- the only eerie thing was suspicious people knocking at the door for trick or treat ngl

I decided to write an introduction for Eng Literature for Macbeth and sent it to my teacher.

Completed C1 and P1 exam question (just realising that I have not been paying attention to biology.. I need to do that)

I wrote more on my creative media essay (if anyone wants to complete the survey here is the link: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=iQyZI2eu_EqHzkcMl6_rN4UI0Ctbt9ZHoz5jv0B4fEdURURRVzlNQVVSUjkzRDE1Vk00QkMzRzFVSy4u)

Today:

Completed a past maths paper 3

Revise system software on smart revise and did practice questions

Received feedback from teacher - rly helpful

Felt like just sharing one of the quotes I found :
'Obstacles do not block the path: they are the path.'

Today:
I had my fist set of mocks : RE and English Language
Tbh I was actually quite scared about them as they are my least favourite subjects to revise... BUT they were actually fine I'm hoping that my grade does not drop for RE as last time I got a Grade 9.
But I hope I at least improve on English Lang and get at least a 7 or 8

Tomorrow:
Biology and Computer Paper 1 exam
Calm and relaxed mind ready to put on....
