Jayden's Demo Report
Jayden's Demo Report
Introduction
Jayden is a Year 9 student who has shown potential in his academic work but has struggled in
certain areas, particularly in mathematics. Throughout the demo, we have worked on a variety of topics,
and I have had the opportunity to assess his progress. Jayden is a polite and obedient student who
demonstrates a willingness to engage with the material and participates actively in lessons. However,
there are areas that require focused attention for him to improve further.
Focus Areas
At the beginning of the demo, Jayden encountered difficulties with probability concepts. Despite
initial struggles, he demonstrated resilience and a willingness to ask questions and seek clarification.
Over time, he showed gradual improvement, though further reinforcement and practice are still required
for him to become confident in this area.
2. Algebra:
A significant area where Jayden needs improvement is algebra. During our assessment, he scored
0/6 in the algebra portion, which indicates a lack of understanding in this area. Algebra is a key skill in
mathematics that will continue to build in future learning. I have suggested that Jayden focus on
mastering algebraic expressions, solving equations, and understanding the basic principles that
underpin algebra.
Jayden was given an assessment paper covering a range of mathematical topics. While he performed
well overall, he made small errors that led to incorrect answers. These mistakes suggest that improving
attention to detail and careful checking of his work could enhance his performance.

Jayden is an active participant in class and usually stays engaged with the material. However,
during certain periods, particularly in the middle of lessons, he seemed to lose focus. This lack of
sustained attention may contribute to mistakes in his work and a slower rate of progress in areas that
require continuous practice.
Strengths
Polite and Obedient: Jayden is always polite and respectful in class, creating a positive learning
environment.
Willingness to Learn: He remains eager to learn and actively seeks help when needed.
Good Overall Understanding: While he struggles in some areas, he has a solid grasp of most
concepts and needs to improve consistency.
1. Regular Review and Error Analysis: Carefully review mistakes in assessments to identify and
correct recurring errors.
2. Continued Support in Probability: Practice additional probability questions and explore real-life
applications to deepen understanding.
