Statistics - Draw pictograms 1-1 - Starter

This set of exercises is aimed at Year 2 students and is part of the Spring Term curriculum, specifically designed for Week 5, Day 4. The activities focus on reinforcing basic mathematical concepts and skills. The 'Fluent in Four' section provides a revision opportunity where students are tasked with solving simple arithmetic problems such as division and understanding halves and doubles. For example, students are asked to calculate 44 divided by 2 and to find the result of halving 80 and then doubling 5. These exercises help to reinforce their understanding of basic operations and number relationships.

In addition to arithmetic, the students are also introduced to data representation through completing a pictogram. The key for the pictogram indicates that each symbol represents one person. Students are instructed to fill in the pictogram based on the given data for different ice cream flavours, such as Strawberry, Vanilla, Chocolate, and Mint, with totals provided for some flavours. Furthermore, the exercises include a sequence of numbers from 21 to 50, where students must use four specific numbers to complete a statement, enhancing their number sequencing skills. Lastly, there's an activity that involves describing the turns of figures, teaching the students about rotations such as a three-quarter turn clockwise, a quarter turn anticlockwise, and a half turn. This variety of tasks is intended to develop a well-rounded set of foundational mathematical skills in young learners.
