Mrs Small (Yr 8 Maths) Week One and Two - Boys please use the number revision booklet and answer booklet that you were given today to assist you revising for the examination. You can also reuse the booklet I made for you for the mid-year examination. Mrs Small.

Attitude + Aspire + Commitment = Achievement - Best wishes.
NL Maths - Week 6:
Using the website https://ourworldindata.org/, or another useful website with statistics, you are to choose two sets of statistics in order to see if there is a correlation between the two. Similar to the 'Spurious Correlations' website, there may actually be no real-life connection between the two sets of data, however they appear to be connected when statistics are viewed.
Phrase your investigation question along the lines of:
"I wonder if there is a correlation between ............ and .................."
You will need to have chosen the two sets of data before our maths session on Wednesday when you will start to compile and present the statistics.

Boys I have created a booklet for revision for you to use in the build up to your maths exam next Thursday.
My suggestion to you is to work a small portion of each sheet over the weekend/Mon/Tues/Wed.
I have set the boarders work tonight that I have covered in class for preparation the exam, which we will all do tomorrow in class.
(MS) TIP for your exam:
"Think" about what the question is asking you. Think what do I know that can solve that. What strategy could I use to make the number computation easier to work with.
If the question is in written english instead of digit/number format - what number operation/s is the question asking you to undertake to solve the problem.
