We continued the topic Statistics looking at Stem & Leaf Diagrams followed by Scattergraphs. We also looked at mean, median, mode and range and the class were told a nonsense rhyme to help them recall how to find each of these averages. Then the class had practice at drawing a number of different types of graphs – bar graphs, line graphs, scattergraphs and stem & leaf diagrams. The work can be found on the MyMaths website under Library – Data – Presenting Data – Scattergraphs; Frequency Tables & Bar Charts and Line Graphs and Tw0-way Tables. Also under Library – Data – Processing Data – Stem & Leaf; Mean and Mode as well as Median and Range. The class also had some practice at drawing different types of graphs mentioned above.
This work will lead onto a project based on the statistics that the class will have learnt how to apply and the project will be the basis of evidence of the coursework that they have achieved.
