## Lesson Structure

| Step Number | Step Title                | Length (minutes) | Details                                                                                         |
|-------------|---------------------------|-------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 1           | Introduction to Data      | 5                 | Discuss what data is and its importance in everyday life. Use examples relevant to students.   |
| 2           | Collecting Data           | 10                | Distribute data cards to students and ask them to collect data from their peers (e.g., favourite fruit, number of siblings).                  |
| 3           | Representing Data         | 10                | Teach students how to represent their collected data using a bar chart and a pie chart on graph paper. Provide guidance and support as needed. |
| 4           | Analyzing Data            | 5                 | In pairs, students compare their graphs and discuss the data. Encourage them to make conclusions based on their findings.                      |
| 5           | Homework Assignment        | 0                 | Give students printed worksheets with questions on data handling to complete for homework. Explain the task clearly.                           |

## Assessment
- Observe student participation and understanding during class activities.
- Review the completed homework for comprehension and accuracy, providing feedback without requiring presentations.

## National Curriculum Alignment
- The lesson aligns with the National Curriculum for Mathematics by covering topics such as data handling and representation, ensuring students develop essential mathematical skills in line with expected learning outcomes.

## Additional Notes
- Ensure that all materials are prepared in advance.
- Be ready to assist students who may struggle with graphing or data interpretation.
- Encourage curiosity by exploring additional ways to display data if time permits.
