Christmas Data Collection Planning
Plan a fair investigation about Christmas. Choose suitable methods and write your own ideas in the response spaces. There may be more than one sensible answer.
Plan an Investigation
1.Write a question about Christmas that could be answered by collecting data from people. Make sure the answers can be sorted or counted.
2.You want to find out which Christmas song is most popular with the people you ask. Which method is most suitable for collecting their choices?
- A survey with the same question for everyone
- A tally of how many decorations are on one tree
- Watching people without asking them
- Guessing which song they will choose
3.You are investigating what Christmas fruit people prefer. Choose a sample that includes people from more than one class.
- Only your closest friends
- Students chosen from several classes
- Only the people sitting beside you
- One person from your family
4.You can ask 8, 16, or 24 people about their favourite Christmas activity. Which sample size gives you the largest group?
- 8 people
- 16 people
- 24 people
Make the Results Trustworthy
5.Select every action that would help you collect accurate answers in a survey about Christmas decorations.
- Use a clear question that everyone understands

6.Which situations could make results from a Christmas food survey less reliable? Choose all that apply.
- The question is hard to understand

- Some answers are not recorded
- Everyone is asked the same clear question
7.Give one way to make an investigation about favourite Christmas activities fair for everyone who takes part.
Write Your Collection Plan
8.Complete a plan for an investigation about Christmas. Include a question, a way to collect the answers, who and how many people you will ask, and one step that will help keep the results reliable.
9.You plan to ask classmates which Christmas craft they enjoy most. When would be a practical time to collect their answers at school?
- During class time, with permission
