The sampling distribution of the mean:
Sample means i

Mean of the sample means μ= ∑x̄i/#samples:   will approach the population μ.

Standard deviation of the sample means (AKA standard error [of the mean], SEM) σ=   will approach the population σ/√n.
    σ·√n= σ


The sampling distribution of the standard deviation:
Sample standard deviations si

Mean of the sample standard deviations =∑si/#samples:
