Sumdog Contest – Maths week Scotland

The P2-7 pupils have been taking part in the Sumdog Contest which coincides with Maths Week Scotland. As part of our celebrations, we are competing against our cluster schools (Bargarran, Barsail, Inchinnan, Langbank and Rashielea). The pupils should be given some time in class to play the games but they can also play at home. Keep checking the Blog for updates on our positions on the leaderboard. See below for our current positions. #MathsWeekScotlandRenfrewshire #MathsWeekScotland #MakingMathsCount

Currently there are two classes from Barsail Primary who are ahead of our classes:

32nd P3/2, Barsail Primary Scotland 401
67th P4/3!, Barsail Primary Scotland 340

Try your best to answer questions correctly to help us climb the leaderboard!

P5S – Maths: Carroll Diagrams

Image result for carroll diagram

In maths this week we have been been continuing with our Data Analysis topic. So far we have looked at frequency and grouped frequency tables and you went to another stage within the school with your survey question. You then recorded this information in a grouped frequency table. Can you tell someone at home the question you and your group decided on?

Next we looked at how to display information in a carroll diagram. I was very impressed at just how quick you picked this up. With your maths partner, you were given a number of 2D shapes which you had to then use to record information in your own carroll diagram. You had to agree on suitable titles to use – how did you do? What titles did you decide on?

Here are our completed carroll diagrams. Please show someone at home your work. Click the link below.
