Choosing one maths goal for a study session

Too many topics in one session can hide what the student has learned. Choose one skill first, such as identifying what a question asks or comparing two-digit numbers.

A SHORT EXERCISE

Try it yourself first.

Order 47, 74 and 49 from smallest to largest. Explain how you compare tens first, then ones when the tens match.

View the solution or example answer

The order is 47, 49, 74. Compare the ones in the first two because their tens match. 74 comes last because its tens value is larger.

Your next step.

Try one similar question without help at the end. Identify which part of the chosen skill needs support before increasing the question count. Observe whether the same method is reused.

Joining online lessons from Sultanbeyli.

Lessons with Songül Nazariani are live, one to one and exclusively online. Share your needs for primary or middle school maths, general English, conversation practice, IELTS or TOEFL preparation. Suitable days, times, lesson duration and fees are discussed together.

Sharing the student’s year group and a question they find difficult helps us plan the starting point.
