Lesson
Details & links Assessed work / further work / QMA My Learning My Thinking My Research My Feelings My Peers

1
Starter: Using frequency polygons to compare 2 sets of data commenting on average and spread.

Main: Plotting scattergraphs
Scattergraph lesson

2 Main: Correlation and using the line of best fit on already plotted scattergraphs from yesterdays lesson
Teachers TV on Scatter Diagrams
Worksheet to complete whilst watching Teachers TV

3
Main: Producing stem and leaf diagrams

4
Main: Finding the median, mode and range from a stem and leaf diagram

5
Starter: Interpreting bar charts
Main: Pie charts (Interpeting)

6
Starter: Interpreting vertical line graphs
Main: Pie charts (drawing/calculator and non calculator)

7
Starter: give pupils information about numbers of boys and girls in years 10 & 11 and get them to put information into a two-way table.

Main objective: construct and interpret two-way tables

8
Main objective: drawing a frequency diagram (histogram!) for grouped data with equal class widths.

Pupils should understand that bar charts are generally used for small sets of discrete data and they should appreciate the difference between a bar chart and a frequency diagram/histogram i.e. bar charts have gaps between the bars, histograms don’t and histograms have a continuous scale on the horizontal axis

Pupils need to use graph paper!!
