Winning Dots

 On Monday Te Ngahere started some new Maths. For Maths we were learning to make and analyze dot plot graphs. Activity one was about how far room 1 can throw a tennis ball. Room 1’s data was on a dot plot graph but there was still more data and that was when we had to make our own dot plot graphs for room 2’s data. I learnt that the word “range” means lowest to the highest point. When we first started this activity I thought that the word “range” meant where the ball went but we were wrong. For example, room 1’s longest throw was 19 metres and there lowest throw was 3 metres so you just take away 3 from 19 and it equals 16. Something I could work on and o better for next time is making my DLO more understandable so that people who don't know what a dot plot is will learn from my Blog Post. Have you ever made a Dot Plot Graph to display your data before?

This is where we had to make a dot plot graph for room 2's throws:
