In this practical task, students design a tally chart to record the number of different coloured ice-block sticks in an envelope. Students use the sticks as tally marks.
Students carry out an investigation to determine the frequency and percentage of different numbers resulting from 100 dice throws. They construct a table to record the results.
Students read a short piece of text and construct a tally chart for the number of letters in each word. With these results they draw and label a pie graph.
Students complete the total and mean columns in a table of sunshine hours. They then construct a bar graph and make a statement comparing some of the data.
Students conduct a practical, statistical investigation. They decide on a Topic and question, conduct the survey, complete the tally chart, construct a bar graph of the major ideas and make statements about the results.
Students study a table of test results percentages for a range of subjects. Students answer questions involving mean, median, mode and range. They also draw a stem-and-leaf graph.
Students compare drawings of a healthy and unhealthy plant and decide which quantitative and/or qualitative data distinguishes them. They draw conclusions from the data. This is a mathematics/science resource.
Students compare drawings of a healthy and unhealthy plant, collect data, and decide which data distinguishes them. This is a mathematics/science resource.
For this practical task students follow a plan to determine the effects of a weak acid on different building materials. Students need to put their results into a table and write a conclusion.
