What's inside.

  • ✓Sports data collection and analysis guide
  • ✓Average and percentage calculation activities
  • ✓Chart and graph creation
  • ✓Player and team comparison

What they are actually learning.

Your child collects real stats from a sport they care about and does statistics with them. Averages, shooting percentages, win rates. They chart it, rank players fairly using the numbers, and then predict what happens next and see whether they were right.

  • Percentages: Calculating averages, shooting percentages, win rates and success rates
  • Organisation: Recording stats in tables, sorting them, then graphing to reveal the pattern and predict from it
Why it matters

When maths lives in real money, real measurements, and real decisions, it stops being a worksheet and becomes a tool. A kid who uses it to get something they actually want remembers it for life, and they did it with you. That is the moment "I taught my kid something real" starts to feel possible.
