AH Statistics Regression FlowChart - a suggested order in which to approach bivariate data (data with two variables), starting with approximate methods and checking the validity of the model as you go.
This is a set of six puzzles presented as large scale Power Points. I used them as colour A3 posters for a monthly maths competition.
Although they are challenging, they can all be solved without using any advanced techniques.
Full solutions included.
Edit: Added two more puzzles
Thirteen homeworks each with full solutions, covering the following areas of the course.
1 - Probability
2 - Probability, Sampling, Binomial
3 - Probability, Sampling, Binomial
4 - Binomial, Normal, Poisson #1
5 - Distributions
5a - Distributions and Regressions
6 - Hypothesis Test
7 - Normal Approximation
8 - Control charts, Confidence Interval, Fences
9 - Mean and Variance
10 - Binomial, Normal, Poisson #2
11 - Z and T tests
12 - More Distributions
13 - Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney
For some of the homeworks (2,3,5) I have made slightly different alternative versions and they are included too.
Update: homeworks 2,5,7 updated March 2023
A set of multi-part questions covering both chi-squared test for association and goodness of fit
A set of questions building up to using chi-squared to work out whether a Binomial or Poisson distribution fits the data
Both provided with full solutions.
15 numeracy questions of increasing difficulty.
Multiple copies should be printed out (one-sided) and each team starts on Q1. When they bring you the answer to that they get Q2, and so on.
Topics covered:
percentages
simple algebra
angles in a triangle/quadrilateral
time
Included with answers.
A rare chance to see the first ever use of an equals sign "for what could be more equal than two parallel lines" and therefore the first ever equation.
Pupils can read the Olde English, translate it into modern equations, then solve them. The first two are linear, the remaining four quadratic.
Provided with full solutions.
A problem solving project where pupils use Pythagoras to find how far away the horizon is, depending on your height about sea level.
This is an open-ended project, where rather than being given all the information up front the pupils have to work in groups to explore the problem, then reflect on what techniques were effective.
It practices several useful skills such as Pythagoras, circle geometry, expanding brackets and rearranging formulas.
There is the scope for very good pupils to extend the project in interesting directions.
A collection of five nicely presented powerpoints each with 5-10 logic puzzles, taken from the books of Raymond Smullyan. For example:
Knights always tell the truth and Knaves always lie. You meet two people. The first says “At least one of us is telling the truth.” What can you say about the two people?
All provided with answers, and references from which Raymond Smullyan book they are taken from.
A variety of resources for pupils to master Excel. Starts with a simple introduction then moves on to using it to run statistical tests.
Although this isn’t part of the syllabus it’s useful for pupils to be able to check their answers, and learn some useful skills.
AH Statistics - Simple Activities to learn Excel
AH Statistics - How to draw a graph in Excel
AH Statistics - Excel
AH Statistics - Excel (solutions)
AH Statistics - More Excel
Powerpoint questions on the following topics.
Binomial
Chi squared
Confidence Intervals
Continuous Uniform Distribution
Discrete Uniform Distribution
Mean and Variance
Poisson distribution
Proportion
Regression
Transforming Variables
All with full solutions
A comprehensive set of 15 questions (with a,b,c) testing the following skills
converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers
converting between fractions, decimals and percentages
adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions
finding percentages
applying percentage increase and decrease
Solutions at the end.
This resource is designed to give pupils much-needed practice on where points move after a transformation, for example: Where does the point (2,4) on the graph f(x) appear on the graph 3f(x)+1?
The first questions are basic practice then pupils look at progressively more complicated graphs, including some practice finding the turning points and range and domain.
Provided with solutions.
A series of practice questions on the following
converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers
adding, subtracting, dividing and multiplying fractions
converting between fractions, decimals and percentages
Included with answers
Edit 2022 -added More Fractions Powerpoint and PDF
A fun lesson with shapes for pupils to cut out and reform. Everyone should have fun with this. Although even young children can understand dissection it hides complicated mathematics in geometry in proof.
The dissections to try here are:
- A rectangle into a square with one cut
- A vase into a square
- An equilateral triangle into a square
- A 8 by 8 square into a 13 by 5 rectangle (!)
- A couple of miscellaneous shapes
- An approximate dissection of a circle into a square
Worked examples and questions on these four topics:
Substitute values into expressions and evaluate
Multiply two brackets
Solve inequalities
Create and solve inequalities for problems in words
Solutions included
This is a set of six puzzles presented as large scale Power Points. I used them as colour A3 posters for a monthly maths competition.
These puzzles are challenging and give the scope for comprehensive answers.
Full solutions included.
This is Power Point and practice questions to get pupils comfortable with subtracting a negative number. Rather than just stating that “it’s the same as adding” they will learn to do this instinctively, by thinking about temperature.
Full solutions provided.
A bumper set of revision questions on the topics of sequences, functions, logarithms and circles, presented in the style of a ‘clinic’ where pupils can get help for their medical maths problems.
When I last used this for revision I printed each one in A3 and put them on tables for pupils to attempt in groups.
**Update **
A colleague has written out full solutions which I’ve now added.
Correction #1: Sickly Sequences Q4 the first sequence definition should end ‘+2’ instead of '-2’
Correction #2: Vicious Circles Q4(a) the tangent line should be ‘2x+3y=0’
