Using the 'Chart of the Day' page (linked) I have set some questions on real life data. I'm sure you could all come up with better questions, but hopefully this will give you a start.

A couple of statitstical graphs regarding the World Cup with some questions that I've come up with for my class(es); I&'m sure you could come up with different ones if you wish. The website I got them from is very USA-centric but interesting and could be used as a numeracy resource or cross-curricular stuff.

Two-way tables, filling in the missing information. I needed some questions on this for a lesson and struggled to find what I was looking for so wrote this. Typos now corrected!

I got a request to do an activity using the A Team, both old and new. This is it! Convert each unit so that either 'old' or 'new' A Team understands. The numbers are pretty simple and it is designed to be a starter or plenary.

I really wanted some frequency polygon work but it is very thin on the ground, so I came up with this. I have also linked the website from which I got all the data. There are two versions; one (Raw Data) where they must tabulate first, and a second (Data Tables) for those you just want to get on with graphing and interpreting.

I found this poster with various numbers regarding the World Cup in Brazil and made this activity from it. Change the questions at will. I have also put a link to the website 'My Life In Numbers' as that has a new 'Live Event' measuring from the start of the tournament.

I found the 'Research' section on the Sport England website and noticed that their graphs and charts are more aesthetically focused than useful. I therefore came up with this. There's loads of useful stuff on the website (which is hyperlinked in the powerpoint), especially the infographics bit in 'Who Plays Sport?'.

Either cut out and group or colour in the cards and tables that go together - just thought it would make a bit of a change to just grinding out questions.

A student asked me in a lesson today 'Who is ever going to use this in real life?'. So I did this as an example. Students choose on which 2 of 5 roads should speed cameras be installed and explain why they made their choice.

All super heroes have decided to survey people in order to make their operation more efficient, but they need help with stratified sampling. That’s where you come in…

I need help converting pounds to euros, miles to kilometres and temperatures. My phone has run out of battery so I have to use a conversion graph to make a best estimate. There are a few silly pictures of me and my head on celebrity bodies to add a bit of fun.

The owners of P&Q have ordered labels but they have been delivered in the wrong units - can you convert them into the units required?

The two bands are comparing notes with regards being in a band in different eras. The 1D boys work in metric, The Stones in imperial. Can you convert units between metric and imperial (and vice versa) for each band?

The 1D boys are describing what it's like to be a pop star but using all the wrong units of measurement; the measurements are correct, but the units need converting. This is an attempt to make metric conversions a bit of fun. I have produced two powerpoints depending on the ability of your class: 1. highlighted to make the units stand out; 2. not highlighted.

I had a request for a link to a One Direction song on one of these and I'm nothing if not compliant. I have linked to the ironically title 'Best Song Ever'. And the link: 'direction' and lines.

The Easter Bunny has decided to leave eggs on co-ordinates on linear graphs. Find the co-ordinates of the eggs. He has also left eggs but mixed up the equations; can you match the correct equations with the correct graphs?

There are four activities. The first is reading from a distance-time graph of one of EB’s deliveries. The ere are two sets of information where you must draw the distance-time graph. The final activity is where students make their own journey then graph it. I have also put a link to a clip from YouTube of ‘Rise of the Guardians’.

Using Stage 8 of the 2013 Tour de France, a stage won by Chris Froome, can you use his timings (as accurate as I could get from the official Tour website) to answer the questions. It’s basically speed calculations. There are links to the website and a video ‘hook’ at the beginning.

This is a revision activity either to be done in small groups or individually. There are the following rounds: Number, Algebra, Shape and Space, Date Handling, Using and Applying. All have 10 questions worth one point each except the Using and Applying round where there are 5 questions worth 3 points each, where workings must be given.

Three of the characters are flying around Europe and need your help with the equations of the lines for their route. There are three (all on the same sheet) that get increasingly difficult. Depending on the confidence in this topic topic, start them where you see fit.
