Students are required to construct a composite bar graph based on Statistics New Zealand Time Use Survey data and are then required to make comparative statements based on gender.
Students conduct a practical, statistical investigation. They decide on a question, categories, conduct the survey, tally and graph the results on a bar graph.
Students order small numbers written in standard form, and explain why they are ordered in that way. The numbers are the lengths of some microscopic animals.
Students discuss making an interval estimate in multiplication problems (i.e., getting a lower and an upper limit for the actual answer using the front-end and rounding-up estimation methods). They then use this method on two problems.
