Today we would like you to use your mind maps/ reflections from yesterday to create your poster including all the information we have gathered over the last 2 weeks.

It must include:

• Key vocabulary and definitions
• Information about different charts and graphs
• Examples of data I have created
• A detailed reflection on the back

Feel free to use colour to create an attractive poster but remember the most important thing is the quality of your learning and the information it communicates.

Key vocabulary

data, discrete, continuous, key, frequency, scale interval, represent, pictogram, tally, bar chart, time graph

Once your poster is complete, on the back, we would like you to reflect on how this topic was for you.

Remember our character trait for this term is SELF AWARENESS and you should have thought about some questions you had for yourself back when you did your Launch Page at the start of last week.

Have you been successful in your learning?

What has been challenging? Why? How did you overcome this?

Were there any questions you had that you weren’t able to answer then and could now?

10:30-11:00

Break time/snack time

Those of you working at home will have our Zoom check-in now :) see you online!

Exercise – e.g. mindfulness yoga, fresh air in the garden, run up and down the stairs seeing if you can get faster every time!

You need to keep your body active so that your brain can keep active too.
