Maths - Statistics

Last week we brainstormed different questions we would like to find answers for.  Today we found the answer to "How many people have short or long hair from our class and buddy class?"  Every child had to decide if their hair was short or long.  This was tricky.  If your hair was above your shoulders it was short.  If it was below your shoulders it was long.  Our class decided, the best way to record the data was to use tally marks.  We guessed girls would all have long hair and boys would have short hair.  We were wrong!  26 people had short hair and 17 people had long hair.  Thank you Room 4 for letting us come into your class today!
