Year 6 Statistics: Pie Charts (Day 1)

This is Day 1 of a three-day Pie Charts unit of work for year 6. In this resource pack you will find: Lesson plans (including for your TA), differentiated worksheets (LA, MA and HA plus a challenge activity for deeper understanding/mastery), answer sheets for all activities and flipcharts for whole class teaching (in ActivInspire, PowerPoint and PDF format). This pack will save you hours and hours of planning, resourcing, differentiating, finding challenging activities and generating flipcharts all for an amazing price. In addition, resources are uploaded in both PDF and Word format so that they can be edited to suit your needs.

Day 1 focusses on conceptual understanding. Children will develop the idea of a circle representing a value (e.g. 100%, 1, 50 etc) and that the segments of that circle will have a specific value depending on their size. This lesson is an essential first step before attempting to answer questions about, or construct, pie charts. The challenge activity tasks the children with drawing in lines when given certain values - a basic introduction to constructing pie charts.

Objectives covered:

Interpret and construct pie charts and line graphs and use these to solve problems

The three day pack can be purchased either on a lesson by lesson basis or as a three-day unit of work
