This 28-page resource covers all the required knowledge for the normal distribution in the A2 part of the new A level. In every section it contains notes and examples to work through with your class followed by an exercise of questions for students to attempt themselves (answers included). The sections are: 1. Discrete vs continuous random variables 2. Properties of the normal distribution curve 3. Using a calculator to find probabilities 4. z-scores 5. Standard normal distribution 6. Conditional probability 7. Questions that involve both the normal and binomial distribution 8. Inverse normal distribution 9. Finding unknown parameters 10. Using the normal distribution as a model 11. Approximating a binomial by a normal This projectable and printable resource will save you having to write out or create any notes/examples when teaching this topic. It also increases how much you can get through in lessons as students don’t have to copy notes/questions and can work directly onto spaces provided for solutions. You could also email/print some or all of this for students who have missed lessons or need additional notes/practice/revision. Also included is a 2-page assessment that can be used as a homework or a test. Fully worked solutions are provided. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

An introduction to the Normal distribution, including examples and worksheet.

This is an UNRESOURCED scheme of work for GCSE Statistics. Can be used for AQA or Edexcel specifications. There is also a simple learning journey included. Includes both a PDF and an editable word document. Unresourced due to me using resources from multiple places. Pages and chapters in the scheme refer to the book AQA GCSE Statistics by Jayne Roper.

This resource is designed for the Edexcel specification with unique exam style questions. This is paper 3 for set A for A Level Maths and features exam style questions for the following topics: Binomial Distribution Product Moment Correlation Coefficient Probability and Conditional Probability Sampling and Representation of Data Discrete Random Variables and Statistical Distributions Normal Distribution Forces Variable Acceleration Iteration Moments and Forces Projectiles and SUVAT Vectors and Kinematics With this predicted paper there is also model solutions available and video solutions also available by scanning the QR code found within the model solutions or by scanning the QR code on the opening page of the past paper.

The following contains 5 PowerPoints: Introduction to Probability Venn Diagrams Probability DIstributions Normal DIstributions Binomial DIstributions Through the PowerPoint there are links to Youtube videos, GeoGebra and Desmos interactives. The PowerPoint has worked examples, and student exercises. I have also put in past paper exam questions for each topic. I have also included a Normal Distibution Review PPT and assignment with markscheme.

This is a PowerPoint presentation that can be used to introduce normal distributions. The lesson covers what a normal distribution is and then talks through how to convert to a standardised normal distribution (find the z-score). The idea is to encourage the students to understand exactly what they are finding, rather than just using a formula and reading from a table. This means that they will be able to interpret questions and adapt to new situations more easily. The presentation discusses what we mean by standard deviation and how it applies to a normal distribution. We then look at how we can find the z-score and how this helps us find the probability. We then look at a couple of examples, where we use a table to find the probability from the z-score and vice-versa. I use a 'tail end' table of z-scores but the lesson can easily be adapted to other forms of tables. I spent quite a lot of time putting the presentation together to use with my Engineering apprentices so hopefully someones else can also find it useful. I must also give credit to www.mathsisfun.com (https://www.mathsisfun.com/data/standard-normal-distribution.html) where I found a lot of the images used in the presentation.

These comprehensive notes and examples cover the Further Statistics 1 (FS1) unit of the Edexcel new A Level Maths specification. Student booklets are provided for each topic in both Word and PDF formats. There are also teacher booklets for each topic containing detailed worked solutions. The chapter titles are: Discrete Probability Distributions, Poisson and Binomial Distributions, Geometric and Negative Binomial Distributions, Hypothesis Testing, The Central Limit Theorem, Probability Generating Functions, Quality of Tests (Type I and Type II Errors).

I’ve been covering the Normal Distribution with my Y13 A-level mathematicians 30 minutes a week, after school. This is the booklet we’ve been working our way through steadily. I haven’t taught this topic before so borrowed the content from other TES contributors (thank you) and added a mind map to the front to categorise the sections within the booklet and types of questions to expect. Finding simple probabilities Finding critical values for a given probability Finding the mean or standard deviation using the standard Normal distribution Approximating the Binomial Hypothesis testing when sampling from a Normal distribution Please let me know if it’s any use to you or how it could be improved. Thank you! Credits for borrowed resources: Dr Frost, SR Whitehouse & OCR.

These PowerPoints form full lessons of work that together cover the new A level Maths course for all exam boards. Together all the PowerPoints include; • A complete set of notes for students • Model examples • Probing questions to test understanding • Class questions including answers • Individual whiteboard work • Links to exercises in ‘The Textbook by CGP’ these can easily be edited for your textbook The PowerPoints can be used in the lesson and also given to students that have missed a lesson I have added ‘A2 level maths 13 - Composite functions’ for free download Please leave a review as it will really help me to improve my resources Statistics – Normal distribution covers; Understand and use the Normal distribution as a model; find probabilities using the Normal distribution Link to histograms, mean, standard deviation, points of inflection and the binomial distribution Select an appropriate probability distribution for a context, with appropriate reasoning, including recognising when the binomial or Normal model may not be appropriate

8 questions on standard deviation. The first two questions include the table for ease. The last question is a comparison between standard deviation and the mean.

This resource covers the “Interpreting Data” part of the Higher Applications of Mathematics Statistics course. The material was made to be delivered over the course of a week. I’ve designed this Powerpoint to be used in tandem with Scholar and my textbook. You will see references to exercises from these resources.

This paper is designed on the Edexcel advanced information that has been released to help students prepare for the upcoming summer exams. All questions featured in this paper are taken from old M1,M2 and S1 exams and from the topic tests released by Edexcel. If you’ve found the paper helpful please do leave a review i’d massively appreciate that :) Be sure to scan the QR code if you want to see a video solution to the predicted paper!
