D.L.O Statistics

Create - Mathematics. We are learning to plan and conduct investigations using the statistical enquiry cycle:
- determining appropriate variables and data collection methods;
- gathering, sorting, and displaying multivariate category, and time series data to detect patterns, variations, relationships and trends;
- comparing distributions visually;
- communicating findings, using appropriate displays.

We will have met the success criteria when we

• Develop an understanding of how to use a tally chart and a frequency table.
• Use a spreadsheet to record our tally / frequency data.
• Correctly develop a graph or chart using a spreadsheet programme. (Google Sheets)
• Develop a clear statement based on our graphed data and share our learning on our learning blogs.

 

In Room One we had to complete a task for our dragon maths. In dragon  maths we had to search through a newspaper and count how many articles were on each page, then write our findings down.

 

Looking at my data page 17-18 had the most articles with the result of seventeen articles. Most likely because the articles are smaller. The smaller the articles are the more articles can fit onto one page.

From the results of my data page 11-12 and 10-20 have the lease articles of the result of 1. Most likely this is because the articles are a lot bigger which mean they take up more space so other articles can’t fit onto the page.
