1. Functional Skills

2. For this project you will have two tasks to complete…

3. Task 1 - Drawing
You will have to plan and draw an accurate scale drawing of an athletic sports field.
Task 2 - Logic
Solve a logical problem to work out the nationality of some athletes. You will also have to work out their sport and what day of the week they competed

4. What do we have on a athletic sport field and what events do we have?
(Think of the Olympics).
Task 1 - Drawing

5. The parts that you will have to include in your sports field are:
Javelin Area
Running Track
Long Jump Pit
Triple Jump Pit
Discus Area
Task 1 - Drawing

6. What areas of maths, and what equipment will we need?
Task 1 - Drawing

7. To make it fit you will have to use a scale of
You will be given a help sheet like this that tells you the shape of each of the different areas and how big to draw them.
To make it fit you will have to use a scale of
1 cm = 5 metres
What does this mean?
It’s not as easy as it sounds and you will have to think about some bits.
Task 1 - Drawing

8. To save space, both throwing areas and both jumping areas must be placed inside the running track, but they are not allowed to overlap each other.
I suggest that you draw the running track first. Then draw the other areas on separate paper and glue them in to place.
Once you have drawn it all it needs to be all on one single A3 piece of paper.
Do you want to see mine?...
Task 1 - Drawing

9. I’m sure you can do much better! Maybe with some colour and stuff.

Scale: 1 cm = 5 metres
I’m sure you can do much better!
Maybe with some colour and stuff.
Task 1 - Drawing

10. Before we go any further I want to make sure you can use your equipment
correctly.
Task 1 - Drawing

11. On the paper on your desk please draw a square with
each side length 20 cm
Task 1 - Drawing

12. On the end of the square please draw a semi-circle.
Task 1 - Drawing

13. Measure an angle of 30° from this corner...
Task 1 - Drawing

14. And make this into an isosceles triangle.
Task 1 - Drawing

15. Now for Task 2
Task 1 - Drawing

16. For the second task you will have Logic problem sheet.
You will given this sheet:
It has clues written here
A logic grid here
And a solution table here
Using the clues you have to work out which athlete did which sport, what nationality they were, and which day they did it on.
Task 2 - Logic

17. And you will really have to think about it.
Using the grid you can put ticks and cross in to help you solve the problem.
You may have to use a clue more than once, and even go back and reuse clues.
And you will really have to think about it.
Task 2 - Logic

18. Here is the first one as an example...
Task 2 - Logic

19. The American athlete competed two days after Prof F, but the day before the athlete who did the Triple Jump. Dame D is French.
Task 2 - Logic

20. Now its your turn. Here is a reminder of your tasks...
