It's your lucky day! Two lessons in one.... AND homework! Lets be honest. If you were 13 and in science... you would much rather here "It's practical day" rather than "It's graph day!" These two lessons aim to show students easily why graphs are important and how to use them to get the most marks in their exam. It even includes a practical. And a song. Follow me on @scipreproom. Don't worry. I didn't write the song. The youtuber gets all that glory.
