Data Handling

This week in maths we are learning about interpreting and recording data. We started by working in groups and looking at a class noticeboard. We took it in turns to ask questions about it and the rest of our group had to guess which part we were describing. Some of the questions were: "if I wanted to know who was having packed lunch where would I look? and "if I wanted to check who was using the ICT suite where would I look?"

We also looked at the noticeboard on the smart board and Miss Rendall asked us different questions about it. 

Yesterday we spoke about recording data and the different ways you can do this. We started by discussing tally marks and how to use them. We then looked at tables and the different ways they can be used. We worked in pairs to count different letters on a page in one of our books and then added the data to our table.
