Statistics teacher instructions

This booklet is a comprehensive resource tailored for Year 5 teachers to address the key Statistics objectives within their curriculum. Each activity is clearly marked with the relevant objectives at the top of the page, ensuring that teachers can easily identify which exercises align with their lesson plans. Additionally, a detailed list of necessary equipment and resources is provided for each task. To facilitate group dynamics and learning styles, the activities are categorised by symbols indicating whether they are most suitable for the whole class, small groups, or pairs.

Teachers have the flexibility to integrate these activities into their lessons in a way that best fits the needs of their students. Activities can be utilised at the START of a lesson to refresh or assess prior knowledge, in the MAIN body of the lesson to reinforce new concepts, or at the END to evaluate students' understanding and progress. These exercises are intended to complement and enhance the existing teaching materials and methods used in the school. Moreover, children who are part of intervention groups may find repeated engagement with these activities particularly beneficial in reinforcing their grasp of statistical concepts.
