Dragon maths graphs.


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.
  • This is the work from a dragon maths problem pg 96. We had to create graphs for this. Here is my work

I have learnt that the age group with the most people at camp was the 6-8 year olds and the group with the least people is 15 year olds. There were the same amount of 3-5 year olds as there were 9-11 year olds. I think that this graph shows that parents mostly take 6-8 year olds camping. I wonder why most people take 6-8 year olds camping?
