How Much Have You Grown Today?

This resource uses height data from the pilot of CensusAtSchool to encourage Key Stage Three and Key Stage Four students to investigate growth. They are asked to draw conclusions using both calculations and graphs and also consider other factors affecting growth. Students develop skills in interpreting tables, understanding the problem solving cycle, converting units, presenting data, working out mean averages, interpreting charts and graphs, and line graphs.
