• The sampling distribution of the sample mean for a small finite population
• The distinction between a population distribution and a sampling distribution of a statistic
• The emerging shape/center/spread pattern of a simulated sampling distribution as trials and sample size vary
• The Central Limit Theorem’s claim and its conditions of applicability
• The standard error formulas for a sample mean and a sample proportion
• The applicability conditions of the Central Limit Theorem to a real, previously unseen sampling scenario
• The distinction between bias and variability as two independent properties of a sampling method
• Classification of a real-world sampling flaw as a bias problem, a variability problem, or both
• A spreadsheet-based empirical sampling distribution built from a real dataset

Every lesson is written for a parent with no teaching background: it opens with a short script to read aloud, names the specific wrong idea a student is likely to reach for and how to correct it, and closes with a practice sheet you may copy for your household. Scripture references are King James Version throughout. Black-and-white, 8.5 x 11 in. The whole year of this course is also in this store as a single book.
