🎯 Learning Goal

WALT: Collect data accurately and organise it into a table

Success Criteria - I Can:

Record my data into a clear and labelled table

Choose appropriate units of measurement (e.g., cm, m)

Label my table correctly (including units and variable names)

Explain what my table shows about the measurements collected

📊 Data Collection Table

Instructions: Use this table to record your measurements. Work with your partner to measure each person in your group.

⚠️ Important Reminder: Record all measurements using the same units (centimetres for both foot length and height).

📝 Data Collection Steps:

1. First, give each column a clear heading (what are you measuring?)

2. Include units in your headings (e.g., "Height (cm)")

3. Measure carefully using rulers and measuring tapes

4. Record your measurements neatly in the table

5. Check your partner's measurements to make sure they are reasonable

🤔 Reflection Questions

1. What does your completed table show about the measurements you collected?

2. Why is it important to use the same units for all measurements?

3. How did you check that your measurements were accurate?
