MathsWatch & Tassomai Our students have continued to use MathsWatch and Tassomai for their homework this term. Tassomai is used by our students in Years 7 to 9 giving them multiple choice and short answer questions. They should be completing 3 daily goals a week. MathsWatch is used by all year groups for their main homework task. Homework is set via the MathsWatch website on Fridays and students have a week to complete the homework. Homeworks will consist of a range of videos to watch followed by

some interactive questions to complete. Students can return to the video at any point if they are struggling. Students have all been given their usernames and passwords, however their class teachers can reset passwords if required. Students have access to computers and a teacher for help during our maths homework club on Tuesday evenings in the library. We have seen great progress from students who use these programs consistently as it helps to embed their learning and gives them a chance to practice outside of class. Students have also said they like that they can watch the videos many times over before attempting the question.

Science The autumn term is always a busy one and this year has been no different. The science department has lots to share so we hope you enjoy. At the end of September, we were really fortunate to have The Royal Institution visit Regents Park to give an exciting demonstration packed science show to Years 9 and 10. The students were

treated to an amazing journey through the stores of energy that surround us. From elastic to gravitational, kinetic to chemical, they saw some fiery and explosive demonstrations of what energy is and how it affects our lives. We all particularly enjoyed the banana being stored at a radioactive material and propane bubble burning is always good fun. Remember this is not to

be tried at home! Regents Park would like to thank the Royal Institution for their generous bursary, without this financial contribution we would not have been able to enjoy the show.
