Description
Complete standard deviation. Easy to use and follow PowerPoint. Simplifying standard deviation for students with step-by-step worked standard deviation calculations.
The accompanying workbook is aligned with the PowerPoint. It reinforces learning with exercises, ensuring students grasp the concepts independently.
The focus of the resource is the application of standard deviation and interpretation of results rather than explaining the concept in detail.
It can be used as a pure maths resource in addition to science lessons. Perfect for homeschooling as well.
Lesson objectives:
- Define the mean.
- Calculate the mean of a set of numbers.
- Define standard deviation.
- Calculate standard deviation.

CCSSHSS-ID.A.2
Use statistics appropriate to the shape of the data distribution to compare center (median, mean) and spread (interquartile range, standard deviation) of two or more different data sets.
CCSSHSS-ID.A.4
Use the mean and standard deviation of a data set to fit it to a normal distribution and to estimate population percentages. Recognize that there are data sets for which such a procedure is not appropriate. Use calculators, spreadsheets, and tables to estimate areas under the normal curve.
