EDEXCEL FUNCTIONAL SKILLS PILOTMaths Level 1Carol RobertsDraft for pilot centresChapter 1: Working with Whole NumbersChapter 2: Working with Fractions, Decimals &PercentagesChapter 3: Working with Ratio, Proportion, Formulaeand EquationsChapter 4: Working with MeasuresChapter 5: Working with Shape & SpaceChapter 6: Working with Data and AveragesChapter 7: Working with ProbabilityChapter 8: Test preparation & progress trackHow to use the Functional mathematics materialsThe skills pages enable learners to develop the skillsthat are outlined in the QCA Functional Skills Standardsfor mathematics. Within each section, the units provideboth a summary of key learning points in the Learn theskill text, and the opportunity for learners to developskills using the Try the skill activities. The Rememberwhat you have learned units at the end of each sectionenable learners to consolidate their grasp of the skillscovered within the section.All Functional Skills standards are covered in a clear anddirect way using engaging accompanying texts, whileat the same time familiarising learners with the kindsof approaches and questions that reflect the EdexcelFunctional Skills SAMs (see http://developments.edexcel.org.uk/fs/ under ‘assessment’).The Teacher’s Notes suggest one-to-one, small-group andwhole-group activities to facilitate learning of the skills,with the aim of engaging all the learners in the learningprocess through discussion and social interaction.Common misconceptions for each unit are addressed,with suggestions for how these can be overcome.One important aspect of Functional mathematicsteaching is to ensure that learners develop the necessaryprocess skills of representing, analysing and interpreting.At Level 1, learners should select the methods andDraft for Pilotprocedures and adopt an organised approach to the task.The teacher may provide guidance, but learners shouldmake their own decisions about finding the solutions tothe task.The inclusion of Apply the skills in the Teacher’s Notesfor each section, aims to provide real-life scenariosto encourage application of the skills that have beenpractised. To make the most of them, talk through howthe tasks require the use of the skills developed withinthe section. The tasks can be undertaken as small-groupactivities so that the findings from each group can becompared and discussed in a whole-group activity. Thescenarios can be extended and developed accordingto the abilities and needs of the learners. As part ofthe discussion, learners should identify other real-lifesituations where the skills may be useful.Published by Pearson Education, Edinburgh Gate,Harlow CM20 2JE Pearson Education 2008This material may be used only within the Edexcel pilotcentre that has retrieved it.

I Working with dataYou should already know: how to present data in simple tables, bar charts, pie charts andpictograms and include appropriate information how to interpret bar charts and pictogramswhat tally marks mean and how to use them.By the end of this section you will know how to:collect and organise information using tally chartsrepresent information using pictograms, bar charts and line graphsinterpret data in more complex tables, charts and graphs1 Collecting, recording andrepresenting informationCollecting and recording data usingtally chartsLearn the skillOne way of recording information collected from conducting asurvey is to use a tally chart.Example 1: A market researcher collects informationon what brand of butter consumers prefer. She asks 20customers and records the information on a tally chart.Brand of butterAlmost like butterCountry ButterGolden ButterButtery spreadButter churn Pearson Education 2008Tally//////////// ///////FrequencyRememberTally marks are arranged ingroups of five.Functional Maths Level 1 Chapter 6 page 95Draft for Pilot

The responses from a further 10 customers are recorded below:Buttery spreadButtery churnCountry ButterAlmost like butterCountry ButterCountry ButterButter churnGolden butterButtery spreadButtery spreadComplete the tally chart to show all 30 responses.A tally mark is put into the table whenever a customer says theylike a particular brand of butter. When there are four tally marksin a group together, the fifth tally mark is then drawn across thegroup of four to make a group of five.Brand of butterAlmost like butterCountry ButterGolden ButterButtery spreadButter churnTally//////// /////// //// //////Frequency562125RememberTally marks are arranged ingroups of five because they areeasier to count.Try the skill1.

Make sure thesymbol is easy to draw.Example 1: An estate agent sells 50 houses in September,30 in October, 40 in November and 15 in December. Draw apictogram to represent this information.Use a simple house symbol which is easy to copy, like thisone . As the frequencies are mostly in multiples of 10, it issensible to let 1 house symbol represent 10 house sales.TipAsrepresents 10 housessales, then represents5 house sales.Make sure the pictogram includes a title and a key showingwhat each symbol represents. Make sure also that you line upthe symbols when you draw them (drawing the pictogram on1 cm2 squared paper will help with this).Number of houses sold from September to DecemberSeptemberKey 10 house salesOctoberNovemberDecember Pearson Education 2008Functional Maths Level 1 Chapter 6 page 97Draft for Pilot

Bar chartsA bar chart can have vertical or horizontal bars.When drawing bar charts, make sure you: draw bars with an equal width leave a fixed gap in between the bars use a ruler and a sharp pencil, and draw the bar chart onsquared or graph paper choose a scale which is easy to read give the bar chart a title and label both axes.Example 2: Draw a bar chart to represent the number ofparcels posted at a local post office in one week.Choosing the scale: letting each 1 square centimetrerepresent 5 parcels makes it easy to read the numberof parcels. Letting squares represent 2, 5, 10, 20, 50or multiples of 100 is recommended.Number of parcels posted in one week at post officeTitleNumber of parcels posted30252015The bars all havean equal is labelsLine graphsTo draw a line graph, you need a set of points (calledco-ordinates).Remember to: label both axes give the line graph a title choose a scale which is easy to read.Draft for PilotFunctional Maths Level 1 Chapter 6 page 98 Pearson Education 2008
