Statistical Investigation

We have been working on statistics in Oreti. Today we posed some questions and set about collecting our data to help us put into graphs.

Just in case you were wondering what coding was - here is a great poster to explain parts of it. 

Coding time

We have been working on coding this week using the app called Lightbot.  We are in the beginning stages of coding but so far it has been a hit! There's lots of great conversation and sharing happening. ☺
