P5/6 STEM

6th Mar 2018

P5/6 met again with Bready Jubilee and St Mary's Cloughcor on Tuesday to continue our maths activities with STEM Aware.  We worked on tally charts, frequency charts and bar graphs.  We particularly enjoyed creating a human bar chart to show eye colours of all the children in our STEM group.  Out of 133 children, we found out that  31 had blue eyes and the least common was grey with only 6 children.  We used this information to create our own bar charts when we got back to school.

We also used tape measures to measure the size of our feet and our height.  We went on to measure our hand span and found out that the hand spans of the teachers in the room were exactly the same as their heights but the hand spans of the children weren't the same as their heights.  Do you know why this might be?
