 Introduction

Functional Skillbuilders have been specifically developed to support teachers delivering

Functional Skills and the Skills for Life framework in Adult Literacy and Numeracy. There
are 32 volumes in the series providing a dedicated Functional Skillbuilder volume for each
section and level of the Functional Skills standards/Adult Literacy and Numeracy
Curricula. There are 2 IT volumes at Levels 1 and 2.

All the task-based activities in Functional Skillbuilders are based in three workplace
settings - a hotel, a supermarket and a factory. This helps make the activities both real
and relevant to adult and young adult learners. Knowledge about each workplace builds
cumulatively as students progress through the levels. The tasks become increasingly work
specific as students progress through the series. At Entry Level 3 Handling Data tasks
remain straightforward, but become increasingly work focused.

Functional Skills

These activities are task-based and provide teachers with a variety of materials to build
the full range of Functional Maths skills relating to handling data. The first section of the
book explicitly teaches the functional handling data skills required at Entry Level 3.
Students then have 2-3 more opportunities to build and apply these skills in vocational
contexts, allowing the teacher to teach skills, enable practise and to check learning. At
Entry Level 3 students are expected to check the accuracy of their calculations and results.
You should encourage them to do this by getting them to add numbers in a different
order, using inverse calculations and by estimating answers by rounding.

Functional Skillbuilders are designed to be mediated by teachers. The teaching notes

explain the skills addressed on each worksheet and provide guidance for teaching
strategies. Teaching materials have also been included. Overhead transparency templates
for group work are included at every level.

How to use this pack

Ask the student to complete the checklist on page xi with you. This checklist will tell you
the handling data skills your student most wants to practise. Use the outcome of this
discussion to agree targets with the student and use the table to identify suitable
worksheets.

Teaching notes
There are teaching notes for each worksheet. They explain the purpose of each worksheet
and any groundwork that the teacher needs to cover first. The teaching notes include
suggestions for group work, work in pairs and extension work.

iui
: Understand that chart titles, labels and keys provide data.

The purpose of presenting data is to convey information. Titles, labels and sometimes a key
are important when reading and gaining information from charts.

Look at the data on Worksheet 1 and answer these questions.

. What is the title of the table?

—_—

. What is the title of the block graph?

. What is the title of the pictogram?
. What is the title of the diagram?

 4. Using scale 1

shiuil |
Use a scale to extract numerical values.

Many methods of representing data use a scale. Scale is the relation between the real size of
something and its size on a map, model or diagram. You might see or hear these expressions:
aw A scale of 1:20,000.
mw She was making a scale model of a battleship.
m This is a large-scale diagram. (meaning that things are shown in detail).
m The house is shown to scale. (meaning that the exact shape of the house is shown, but
much smaller)
If a scale has been used, it should be written on the chart or diagram

When you get information from a diagram using a scale, you have to work out the ratio of the
actual measurement to the real measurement.

Look at these diagrams. What is the scale of each one? Write your answers in the boxes.

Count numerical information using a tally.

A tally chart is a simple way of collecting data. A tally is a record or count of a number of
items. You record the marks with a downward stroke, like this:

When you have written four tallies, the fifth is written as a stroke through the other four. This
is sometimes called a five bar gate.

This tally chart shows the responses collected in a survey which asked workers about
their smoking habits. Use the information in the chart to answer the questions.

Record numerical information using a tally. Carry out a survey.

When you collect data using a tally chart you need to be clear about the categories you are
going to count before you start. For example, if you were asked to conduct a five-minute traffic
survey you could categorise the data in several ways:
You could simply count each car with one tally mark:

Number of cars NJ NJ NJ IN |

You could count each type of transport by making tally marks in a chart like this one:

Cars Motobikes Vans Lorries Coaches/buses

IN | | {I IN |
You could count each type of car and mark it by colour:

Blue Silver Gold Green Red White Black Other

IWIN PN TET ROHS NCH sak! TN |

You are going to make an observation of other members of your class or group and
record the information in a tally chart. You need to define the categories of
information you are going to record before you start. These could include:
= hair colour

1. Fine Kenyan Ground Coffee (200 g) £2.78
. Price per 100 g=£2./9 +2 = £159
2. Fine Kenyan Ground Coffee (400 g) £5.48
Price per 100 g= £5.48 + 4 aoa Bey
3. Fine Kenyan Ground Coffee (800 g) £10.48
Price per 100 g = £10.48 +8 ees |
So, the cheapest coffee is in the 800 g sized jar.

 45. Factory - fire safety training

sili |
Organise written information in tables and bar charts.

Some of the factory staff are being trained in fire safety. This is what the course instructor said
at the beginning of the training session:
“Welcome everyone. It’s now 1 p.m. We’re going to have a cup of coffee and
register first. Can everyone sign the register and be ready to start training at 1.15,
please. The total training time is two and a half hours. The first thing we will do is
to raise your awareness of fire hazards. That will take about 15 minutes. Then we'll
take a ten-minute walk around the production area of the factory and look at good
housekeeping. When we get back to the training room we will spend the next 25
minutes discussing fire procedures and raising the alarm. We will then carry out an
evacuation procedure. This will take ten minutes.
After the evacuation |’ll show you the different types of fire extinguishers and their
uses. This will take about 45 minutes.
Then we'll have a 15-minute break before we go on to discuss types of fires. This
will take about 20 minutes. Then we will go outside for a hands-on session looking
at the practical use of fire extinguishers with live fire. The training will end at
4 p.m.”

This information would be easier to understand in a table. Transfer the information

from the paragraph into the table. The first task has been completed for you.

ENTRY LEVEL 3

Maths Handling data

Axis Education’s Functional Skillbuilders range of teaching

materials has been written to support teachers delivering
Functional Skills. Each title contains photocopiable
worksheets together with practical teaching notes to help
you build and apply Functional Skills. Activities in
Functional Skillbuilders are based in three workplace
settings - a hotel, a supermarket and a factory. Tasks are
both real and relevant to adult and young adult learners
and are designed to help your students develop mastery
of Functional Skills.

There are thirty-two books in the series. Thirty titles explicitly

teach Functional English and Maths skills at each section
and level of the Functional Skills standards and build skills
using work-related learning tasks. In addition, there are
two IT books designed to build and apply a selection of
Functional ICT Skills at Levels 1 and 2.

Teachers will find Functional Skillbuilders an invaluable

resource to support Functional Skills at Key Stages 3
and 4. Functional Skillbuilders are also ideal for Skills
for Life students as well as literacy and numeracy support
for vocational qualifications, including Foundation Level
Diplomas and NVQs.
