WALT: Sort data into categories

Wiremu is allowed to choose a pet for his birthday. He decides to find out what
pets his classmates have. He gives each classmate a blank data card, asks
them to list any pets they have, and collects the cards. With a classmate, discuss
Wiremu’s data. Which information is necessary? Which information is unnecessary?
Which data is difficult to interpret?

Make a comment on one piece of data from above: there are more necessary data then

unnecessary and hard to interpret.

Unnecessary group (why is it unnecessary?): because it isn't help.

Hard to interpret group  (why is it hard to interpret?):because we may not know
the animal or it may be a issue with the animal like if it was sick or something.

WALT: Interpret and communicate findings about data

The class next door did a similar survey to the one above but they were asked to name
their favourite pet. The results are shown on this tally chart and then presented on the bar graph:

Write three statements that interpret the data shown above:

1. More people liked cats then guinea pigs
