We had a big vote to choose a new toy for the nursery. We each had a vote and we created a large bar graph. There was lots of valuable discussions using mathematical language like ‘most’, ‘more than’ and ‘least’. Also the concept of democracy – one man/woman one vote was discussed many times. A lot of learning from one simple bar graph! The favourite was the Busy Bee pictured below and it has turned out to be a very popular choice.
