Using the nth term - Linear Sequences

(0)
Starter asks pupils to describe number patterns from pictures. Then examining the properties of Linear Sequences from term-to-term rules, pictures, straight line graphs. Examples of how the general rule is used: finding terms, finding positions of terms, seeing if a number belongs in a sequence, finding common terms in two sequences. Worked examples and question slides on each topic. All answers included.

Stratified Sampling

(0)
A complete lesson on ‘Stratified Sampling’ that is suitable for GCSE. The lesson is written for the new GCSE specification. Starter on calculating angles for pie charts reintroducing idea of groups being proportions of the whole. Reminder on different types of Sampling and advantages/disadvantages of each. Stratified sampling explained and pupils asked to find the ‘sample proportion’ for data. Explains how to find frequencies of the sample. Questions on each idea. All answers included.
Grouping Continuous Data

Grouping Continuous Data

(0)
A complete lesson on ‘Grouping Continuous Data’, written for the new GCSE specification. Starter looks at whether data should be measured or counted leading into explanation of differences between discrete and continuous data. Explanation of why continuous data must be grouped. Examines why we don’t use bar charts for continuous data and what we do use. Questions and answers included on slides.
