Fantastic Statistics

In week 1 Te Maunga got into maths mode big time. We all came up with a series of questions to find out what things are our favourite in class.

We had to ask everyone these questions and tally up the data. It was great finding out all of this new information. 

Once the data was gathered we needed to put it all into a table to understand it better. We used Google Sheets to put the data in. Once the data was tabled, we created a graph to show our data. 

The last part was interpreting the data. It was really important to think about what the data showed and what pieces were missing. We had a great time learning about doing a statistics investigation.

Sea Creatures On Land!

On the last day of Term 1 we all spent the morning doing a range of activities that link in to our learning about sea creatures.

We did some art to show a school of fish, more art with shaving cream to make seahorses, some science experiments to simulate an oil spill and sea currents, drew a scale chalk drawing of a blue whale and made an "X-Ray" of a fish.

We all had a lot of fun and learnt all sorts of new things about the creatures we can find in the moana we live by.
