Recently, 5.1 have been learning about Collecting and Representing Data in Mathematics. This has involved their teacher, Mr Young, having to bare the brunt of the student’s survey findings (which resulted in a lot of laughs). As a way of consolidating the class’ understanding of concepts, the class was tasked with researching different types of beard and moustache styles, creating a survey, collecting the data and interpreting the findings. The findings were abundantly clear and a compelling case was made that Mr Young needed to don a 'Fu Man Chu' for a day. Overall, there were lots of laughs had and the end of unit results showed students had learnt a lot, which was very pleasing to see. The moustache however, was short-lived!
