#mathsTLP Round-up (2nd January) – Miss Norledge's Storeroom

This week’s topics included:

Real life graphs
Problem solving with averages

Real life graphs

I'd love to have more resources for real-life graphs!

In particular, anything on:
– gradient of and area beneath speed-time graphs for KS4
– distance-time graphs for KS3
– container filling graphs#MathsTLP

Problem solving with averages

#mathstlp does anyone have any resources on problem solving averages questions? The ones where it usually tells them the range/mean/median/mode and they have to find so many numbers that satisfy it. Or even any strategies on helping students not just give up 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️
