Maths Data Handling Traffic Survey

Class 2 took advantage of the beautiful day and undertook a traffic survey in the village.  This is as part of our Data Handling topic in maths. Primary 2 joined us as participating in a traffic survey is one of their STAR award targets. We were able to see the volume of traffic in our village. We analysed our data results. We could determine that most vehicles were delivery trucks to the hotels during the morning and that there would be a greater volume of traffic at the weekend with visitors to the village for leisure. We predicted that there would be more cars just before 3pm when parents came to collect children from school.

We produced a bar graph of our results by hand and by using 2Simple software.  We were then able to compare the advantages and disadvantages of both methods.

While we were at it, we practiced our road safety using our Green Cross Code.
