      This unit of work is on set notation and Venn diagrams

      Students often struggle to recall the notation of Venn diagrams and to link it to common English terms as well as to represent this notation diagrammatically.

      We are going to look at how to draw and use Venn diagrams to represent information for increasingly complex problems. Set notation will be explored and learners will use Venn diagrams for finding probabilities.

      This unit of work is just one of several approaches that you could take when teaching this topic and you should aim to adapt the resources to match ability level of your learners as well as your school context.
