Learning our Maths Games

This week we have been learning how to play the maths games in our Knowledge Boxes. Each day we are learning 3 new games. These are the games some of the students in T13 like. 

We like to play Bigger because it is fun and has easy numbers. 

We like to play 1 Jump Forward because it is fun and you get to put cool counters on. It is pink.

We like Guess My Number because it is fun. We love it.

Tally Charts

We are learning how to use tally marks.

We did a tally of our favourite pets.  We learnt that we put the fifth tally mark around the bundle. Then we could count quickly when we were counting up the marks.

Next we asked our own question about what we wanted to find out about our T group.  

We then used our tally charts to make a bar graph.

Will found out that orange was the most popular colour and pink was the least popular colour.

Do you have a question that you would like to find out about our T groups?

Making Pictographs

In Maths we are learning how to group and display different things. This week we grouped our T groups in different ways. 

We asked each other what we liked doing and then made a pictograph.

We are learning to write comments about our graphs.
