A lesson built around the objective: Develop further understanding leading to mastery of scatter graphs.

The idea is that after a starter exercise the class move around in tables of four attempting each of the circus activities. Then they are given a written exercise to back it up and then a whole class plenary activity. See the attached lesson plan.

The good points noted by an observer of this lesson were:
*Collaborative learning in mixed ability groups
*Pupils could explain the decisions they made
*Use of subject specific vocabulary buy the pupils
*Opportunities for Mastery
*Use of Magenta Principle - Arrange
*Encourage pupils to challenge answers.

Not all the resources listed in the plan are located here. Some come from other TES contributors, but as long as you get a collection of activities which each take about the same duration you can set up a good Circus of activities.

Starter comes from Scatter Graph Matching Cards by "john_speight"
The "Six Cards Discussion" is the attached PPT. This is excellent for prompting discussion. Some of the slides are copied from some other Contributors resources.
The True/False is my TES free resource "11307990". This is the activity which has the most discussion
The Correlation match posters come from Scatter graphs and best-fit lines by "frickard". This was quite short so needs extra added otherwise this group finishes too quickly.
The draw LOBF worksheet is one part of Scatter diagrams / scatter graphs by "jsteingold"
The L7 & L6 questions are some good scatter questions from KS3 Testbase.

The written questions are for sale as a Premium resource from my TES shop. It is simply a list of 14 questions laid out on a sheet of A4 stickers so that students can choose which question to answer.

The plenary is just a series of knowledge recall questions on a PowerPoint to do as a class Q&A.

Thanks for uploading. Nice to see that you were able to make good use of some other resources already on TES, and there are plenty of helpful questions in your powerpoint.
