We have been learning about data.
“Data is information that we gather for a specific reason.” M ( Miss Lockhart is jumping for joy that I remember this!)
Today I asked the learners in Room 2 about their pets at home.
“Miss Lockhart asked a question and we gathered the data.” A
We can now analyse our data, here are some of our findings.
“The most popular pets were dogs.” M
“The least popular pets were hamsters and rabbits because nobody had them.”
“6 people have no pets.” E
We can record our answers using tally marks too, have a look below at some of our examples.
- “We made 9 tally marks.” E
- “I have 6 tally marks.” S
- “I can write tally marks, 9 people have dogs.” I
- “I drew 2 tally marks.” A
- Our completed chart.
