HD1/E2.5

Represent information so that it makes sense to others.
(a) Understand that information can be represented in different ways, e.g. a list, a table, a diagram
(b) Understand the importance of labelling information in tables and diagrams

The classic example of a tally is keeping track of how many cars of each colour go past in the street, but that is rather awkward to do in practice.

Use this presentation to save having to leave the comfort of the classroom! It is a PowerPoint slideshow of cars of various colours, to be projected onto the board. Tell learners to keep a tally of how many cars of each colour appear. Where a car has more than one colour, they should put it under the predominant colour.

E1 learners could focus on simply counting (for instance) all the red cars.
