You can use this guide to help you understand how different areas are approached in maths, and therefore support your teaching of mathematical content in geography lessons.  \nThe content is split into distinct mathematical concepts. Each chapter takes you through the terminology used in that area, as well as examples taken from Pearson maths textbooks to show you the methods students should be familiar with when solving mathematical problems.  \nSections which are highlighted green have a particular connection or reference to geography and may include geographical examples.  \nSections which are highlighted blue refer to inconsistencies and common errors.  \n1. Statistical graphs, charts and tables: data, bar charts, frequency tables and diagrams, pie charts, histograms  \n1.1 Data  \nDemand  \nAll students learn the difference between discrete and continuous data in KS3 . They also come across categorical data.  \nTerminology  \nData is either qualitative (descriptive) or quantitative (numerical) , as well as either discrete (only certain values according to context) or continuous (any value) .  \nInconsistency: in geography discrete data may be called discontinuous data.  \n● Qualitative data is information that describes something in more subjective terms, e.g. what people think about the town they live in.  \n● Quantitative data is data that has a numerical value and can be measured precisely, e.g. the number of cars parked on a road.  \n● Discrete data can only take certain values, e.g. whole numbers, or shoe sizes.  \n● Continuous data is measured, e.g. length, time, and can take any value.  \n● Categorical data is where there is no numerical value, but data can still be sorted into groups, e.g. preferences from an interview.  \n1.2 Bar charts  \nDemand  \nAll KS3 student learn to draw and interpret bar charts for discrete and continuous data. may need help with interpreting scales on axes given in, for example, thousands (i.e.  \n2.2 thousand = 2200) or millions.  \nApproach  \n● Can show qualitative or quantitative, discrete or continuous data.  \n● One axis is usually labelled‘Number of …’ or shows frequency.  \n● Frequency is usually shown on the vertical axis (but can be on the horizontal axis with the bars in the chart shown horizontally) .  \n● Bars should be equal in width.  \n● For discrete and qualitative data there are gaps between the bars.  \n● A bar-line graph, for discrete and qualitative data, uses lines instead of bars. It can be used to save time drawing the bars.  \n● For continuous data there are no gaps betw","cbCainp5esgRsI6C","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainp5esgRsI6C","pdf",4405821,49,"English","# Contents\n## Introduction\n## Statistical graphs, charts and tables\n## Graphs including lines of best fit, proportionality, gradients, relationships and correlations\n## Fractions, percentages, ratios\n## Use angular measures in degrees\n## Visualise and represent 2-D and 3-D forms\n## Calculate areas of triangles and rectangles, surface areas and volumes of cubes\n## Units and compound units\n## Significant figures, decimal places, accuracy\n## Standard form\n## Statistical skills – average, mean, quartiles/percentiles\n## Sampling and data","[{\"question\":\"How is the guide organized for KS3 and KS4 maths teaching in geography lessons?\",\"answer\":\"The guide splits content into distinct mathematical concepts, with each chapter covering terminology plus examples and methods students should use.
