RECESS/ LUNCH
Inquiry into Math:
Today we discussed what surveys are and why we conduct them. It's important to understand that the information we collect through surveys is called data. We looked at how clues from data provided could help us determine what the survey question could have been. In addition to this we looked at some topics for surveys and came up with good survey questions we could use to gather data. We then discussed the importance of categories in a survey: the options people get to pick from. When doing this we discussed the importance of the "other" category. This allows participants to provide more accurate data than just selecting one of the few categories provided. When selecting categories to include, we discussed the importance of thinking about the people we are surveying to ensure that they can relate to those categories. Gathering the most data in the "other" category doesn't always provide us with much information that we would need to make conclusions.
Individually, we came up with survey questions on a topic of choice. Once approved, we had to organize our categories in a tally chart. This will help us organize our data when we conduct our survey. We surveyed our class, then went to Ms. Chiappetta's class to gather information from them. Our data is based on the grade 3 population at St. Jude's. Tomorrow we will work on representing this data in either a bar graph, pictograph or double bar graph.
