How far? How fast? How high?
This task uses a Problem-Solving Approach and is designed to take approximately 3 hours of teaching time.
This resource provides a structure for considering and investigating world records in athletics. It involves students handling data in order to answer questions or investigate a hypothesis. Pupils are encouraged to predict changes over time - by how much and how quickly are world records being broken in track and field events? Can we predict the likely World Records this time next year? (Problem solving cycle, scatter diagrams and line of best fit for KS4).
