Unit 6 – Data handling
Work together with a partner or in a small group. Think about something that you are interested in. Decide what question you can ask so you can collect data that gives you the information you need. Some questions you might ask are: How long is your journey to school? Which musical instrument do you play? What is your favourite time of the year? Where do you usually go on holiday?
Decide how you will collect the data, then collect and record the information you need. Work together to create a bar graph or pictograph. You must
also represent the data in a table. Make up some questions to ask about your data. Present your work to the class and talk about what you have found out. Remember to ask your questions too!
