What's Your Favourite Ice Cream‪?‬

In this book, Millie the Mathematician helps us to represent and understand data by drawing and interpreting picture graphs. Anita takes a survey of friends at school to determine what type of ice cream they like best. She uses tally-marks as a way of collecting and recording numerical data which she then displays in a table as a picture graph. This book addresses content from the Statistics and Probability strand within the Data Representation and Interpretation sub-strand of the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics. The specific Australian Curriculum content descriptor addressed is: “Represent data with objects and drawings where one object or drawing represents one data value.  Describe the displays.”
