Statistics

Today we started learning about statistics. We made a tally chart to show the food in our lunch boxes. Tally charts are written in groups of 5. We turned our tally chart into a bar graph. Every bar graph needs a title, two axes, numbers down the side, labels and bars to show how many items we counted. Lastly we made some statements aboutour graph.

Our graph shows that:
 - Room 16 has a lot of healthy food in their lunch boxes.
 - We had 15 items of food from the middle of the food pyramid.
 - We need to have less food from the bottom of the food pyramid becaus we know that this should be the least.

Here is our graph:

THURSDAY CHALLENGE: We will do another tally chart and bar graph tomorrow. Can we make a graph that shows super healthy lunch boxes?? Lets have a go.


Here it is - check out how healthy our lunch boxes were on Thursday!
