Counting Cars

Making the Tally

Today we got the chance to do our own tally and graph just like the one we did with Mr O on Monday.  We counted cars going on the main road and we looked to count 4 colours, white, silver, black and red.  The class were in 2 groups with one group counting cars going one way and the other group counting the cars going the other way.  Each of us took our own tally and the cars were going by very quickly, so our tallies were all different.  Back in the class we made a column graph of the results.  We found that there were mostly white cars driving past the school today.
