Fitzallen, Noleine; Watson, Jane; Wright, Suzie
Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, v22 n2 p3-7 2017
When working within a meaningful context quite young students are capable of working with sophisticated data. Year 3 students investigate thermal insulation and the transfer of heat in a STEM inquiry, developing skills in measuring temperature by conducting a statistical investigation, and using a stylised graph to interpret their data.
