Data handling – Fishy Maths

We have been recording the temperature of the water in our hatchery since it arrived on the 21st of January. We have recorded the temperature three times each day to make sure that the temperature was within the correct range  – 8-10 degrees.

To help us monitor and analyse the data we used Microsoft Excel to record our data and then used the chart Wizard to create a bar chart of our data . Here is the bar chart Morgan created.

Hollie –  It was fun to create our own background for the charts.

Robbie  – it was a bit hard to create the chart but also fun to make our own designs.

ICT – Numeracy

In maths the circles have been learning about angles, symmetry and transformation. We have been learning about direction and movement using bearings.

We used the Sphero’s which  are programmable spheres to demonstrate our understanding of angles and movement. We worked in pairs to programme our Sphero’s .

Marlie – The Spheros are interesting and fun and you could do a lot of things with them.

Robbie  – It is amazing how the Spheros work and they are fun.

Cerys  – They are really technical but also fun.
