The early stages of Statistics

This week we have launched into learning about statistics.  At the early stages this is all about being able to group things or classify things according to an attribute.  Then we move on to bringing those groups together to compare and contrast them using simple graphs.  Here is some of what Mrs Stuarts maths groups have been doing.

Quiet Writing Time

Jack's Construction

We are learning techniques to help us construct objects using cardboard, scissors and tape.

Our Marae learning

We did lots of talking about our marae visit and our inquiry learning this term. We brainstormed and drew pictures to show what we know. Have a look.

Jack's Threading

I am investigating different patterns that can be made in a peg board.

My writing

The letter l

We are revising our phonics sounds. These objects all start with the letter 'l' and make the 'el' sound.

I can read what I write!

Laine and I read the book "Mum" and then wrote a sentence about what we thought our Mums would be doing. We took a picture and read it back.
