One of the activities we did involved Math. When we think of Math, we often think of some basic operations – adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing. Or fractions and decimals might come to mind. One of the “Big Ideas” in the new grade 6 and 7 curriculum can include all of those concepts is data analysis. Data surrounds us in the real-world, so one of my goals is to provide a variety of opportunities to use different operations in Math while gathering, displaying and interpreting that data.
