Statistics

On Thursdays for Maths we are working with Room 14 and Mrs Calman and learning about statistics.
We are learning to sort, count  and compare. We sorted all the children in the class to see if we had more girls or boys in the class. We found out that we have more girls than boys. 

We were all given some coloured beans. We had to sort them and see which colour bean we had the most of.

We have also looked at how many letters in our names and sorted what                                                            was the most common letter used in our names.
