Creative use of data

Last term, Alysha Logan at Hampton Junior School, planned and taught a data-handling unit to Y5. This addressed the following KS2 computing curriculum content:

“select, use and combine a variety of software .. to design and create .. content .. including collecting, analysing, evaluating and presenting data and information”

The unit required pupils to analyse a large set of real data, draw conclusions and present findings as an infographic. Alysha has provided this feedback about the unit:

“[The unit] worked out brilliantly and the children really loved it. I taught it step by step and had them work through it .. which I found to be the best way … They really loved the picture editing software and making the graphs – they seemed to really enjoy seeing their hard work resulting in a visual and unique end product.”
