School Data Collection
Help the student council find out how Year 5 students travel to school. Use the information below to practise planning, collecting and checking data.
The survey results
A group asked 20 Year 5 students, “How did you travel to school today?” They recorded one answer from each student.
Travel method
Number of students
Walk
6
Car
8
Bus
4
Bike or scooter
2
1.Which travel method was most common in this group? Use the results table.
2.How many more students walked than travelled by bike or scooter?
3.Check the total: add the numbers for all four travel methods. Does the sum match the 20 students surveyed?
4.Which is the fairest conclusion from this survey?
- Every Year 5 student in New Zealand travels by car.
- In this group, travelling by car was the most common method.
- No students in this group walked.
5.The group wants to collect data from more Year 5 students. Name one way to choose students fairly rather than only asking their close friends.
6.Before asking someone a survey question, what should you do? Choose the best answer.
- Explain the survey and ask if they are happy to take part.
- Write down their answer without telling them why you are asking.
- Keep asking until they agree.
7.One student says, “I don’t want to answer.” What is the respectful response?
8.Write a clear survey question to find out the main way each Year 5 student travelled to school today. Ask them to choose the mode they used for the longest part of the trip, and include answer choices that do not overlap.
9.A tally sheet has 7 marks for walking, but the results table says 6. What should the group do before sharing its results?
10.Give one reason the group should avoid recording students’ names alongside their travel answers.
