Statistics

What: In Room 24 this week we have
been learning how to work out mean, median, mode and range.
So what: A lot of us didn't know
how to work these out so we started from scratch. To learn how to work out
mean, median, mode and range we watched a video. He showed us an example of his
one and how he did it then gave us a problem and by then a lot of us had worked
it out by now.
Now what: Next week we are
learning about statistics investigations. I don’t know what that is and maybe
some other people don’t so I’m excited about learning something new.

We are learning how to read and interpret graphs. Today we measured ourselves to create a histogram.
Some of the statements we made were:
"There were more people in the 1.56-1.60m range than the others." Mackenzie
"Most people in the classroom are shorter than Miss Biggs." Shae
"The range is 35cm." Jared S
"The mode is 1.40-1.45 and 1.66-.1.70." Jakob
