Our class learned about 3D trigonometry using shapes. To introduce the topic, students positioned their laptops/tablets in specific ways: first to create a right-angled triangle, then to form a scalene triangle. They measured two sides and calculated the third, choosing appropriate rules for both right-angled and non-right-angled triangles.

The students explored the rules of simplifying algebraic fractions using random everyday objects like acorns, leaves, and pieces of paper to represent different terms. Students created “bowls” of these items to visualize how terms in the numerator and denominator can cancel only when they are identical and multiplied, not when they are part of a sum or difference.

Afrikaans students learned about plurals and diminutives, how to spot the basis word and the changes that occur. They were given the basis word on the table, but they had to find the plural or diminutive words that were hidden in the classroom.

We looked at how copper ions are reduced to form solid copper at the electrodes, which made the theory feel much more real (and it’s honestly just a very satisfying experiment to watch - it's so fun ✨).

Our students learned about carboxylic acids and we explored their acidic properties through a hands-on activity by using household materials like vinegar (a carboxylic acid) and bicarbonate of soda (a carbonate). We tested whether carbon dioxide would be produced during the reaction. As expected, we observed effervescence and this confirmed the release of CO₂ which reinforced understanding of how carboxylic acids react with carbonates.
