Sports Statistical Investigation


Last week in maths we collected data about sporting activities and presented our findings using a stem and leaf graph.  First of all we took our resting pulse rates and wrote the results on a stem and leaf graph.  We then ran for two minutes and then took our pulse rates again.  We recorded the results and then compared them to our resting pulse rates.  Next we worked in groups to design an investigation based on a sporting theme, so that we could gather data and analyse the results.
 The sporting activities that we completed were;-
  • How many star jumps we could do in a minute
  • How many basketball shots we could complete in 4 mins
  • How many times could we clap our hands when we threw a basketball into the air
  • How many drop kicks could we do in 1 minute.
  • How many chest passes could we complete in 1 minute at a distance of 3 metres
  • How many soccer goals could we shoot and save in 1 minute
