Persuasive Speech - Why It Is Important For Children To Engage With The News

During Term Two we had been learning how to write and present a speech. Once we had written our speech, we had to present it in front of an audience, our classmates. While I was writing my speech I faced a challenge coming up with 3 different ideas I could make into paragraphs, I also think I did well at using a variety of sentences. When I was presenting my speech I think I did well at making eye contact with the audience. A few of my classmates peer-assessed me while I was presenting my speech, their feedback was that I had a clear voice and I was confident.

Statistical Investigation

WALT: Carry out a statistical investigation.
For my maths investigation, I decided to ask Ruma J to estimate how many teddy bears were in the box. There were 29. 4 people guess that there were more than 35 teddy bears and 20 - 24 teddy bears. The least amount of estimates were in the 25-29 range, with only 3. I found it interesting that out of 16 people only 1 person guessed the right amount. The majority of people guessed in the 30-34 range. I would like to do another investigation on how many there are of each colour.
