Favourite Numbers Between 1-20


As you can see the favourite number is 5 because four people picked five and the next highest number picked was 2.  This could be important because its one of the main numbers that comes to peoples head when rounding numbers or using numbers in different ways.

Aim:
To find out what the most common number was in the class.

Method:
I asked as many students that I could in my class to pick a number between 1-20 and then I put it in a graph.

Results:
I learnt that the favourite number in the class is five.

30 Second Memory Word Challenge


Aim:
Was to get each person to memorise 15 words in 30 seconds and write them down afterwards.

Method:
I created a list of 15 random words then gave it to each person to memorise for 30 seconds. I set a timer for this so it was accurate.

Results:
The people who did the best did the test with lots of background noise the ones who did the worst did the worst in silence. Interestingly the one did the test in silence was the only one to thought she remembered two words that weren't on the list. I learnt that the meaning of memory is to remember something from the past.
