FTGP : 7 ways of saying sorry sincerely

1. RECOGNISE

See the damage you did with your action and recognise it.

2. REFLECT

See things from the other person's perspective. Focus on your own actions. It's OK to say: “I am sorry to have said hurtful things”.

3. REGRET

Reveal and express your genuine regret and remorse.

4. RESPONSIBILITY

Take responsibility for what you did. Admit your wrongdoing without giving excuses. Just say: “I should not have done that. I hurt you by doing that and I am really sorry.”

5. REQUEST

Ask for forgiveness and express the hope that your apology will be accepted.

6. REDEEM

Make amendments. Do something positive to reduce the damage caused and signal your desire to repair the relationship.

7. RESOLVE

People you hurt want your assurance that it will not happen again. So it is important to resolve not to re-offend and repeat similar wrongdoings, and let the offended party know this.

Math : how to fix common mistakes

Watch for errors In copying and transfer. In Math, a common careless mistake is due to transfer error when the ‘brain moves faster than the eye and hand’  – this causes students to transfer a number incorrectly or in the wrong sequence.

Try:
- transfer each digit one at a time, and follow the transferring movement with the eye.
- Be careful when copying over the numbers in a maths question to do the working.
- Highlight or circle the relevant numbers before copying them over.

 

Check for logic. Very often, a good way to double-check is to see if your answer makes sense. If not, double check your problem-solving procedure.
