Australian Curriculum Version 9 Says:
Acquire and record data for categorical variables in various ways including using digital tools, objects, images, drawings, lists, tally marks and symbols.
What this means
Categorical data refers to sorting data into categories or types such as colour, types of pet, etc. The data then needs to be recorded in some way e.g. tallies.
Tips
- Do 1ST01 and 1ST02 together.
- We recommend that you provide students with post-it notes to keep spacing in the graphs consistent.
These Quick Curriculum Guides have been designed to take a look at the Australian Mathematics Curriculum (AC9), explain terminology and provide interpretations.
