A+first+gruesome+lesson+on+Statistics

When we arrived in class Mr Radonich pointed out some measuring stations around the classroom with instruction sheets then handed out little pieces of paper that we had to fill in using the measuring sites. He also made us get into pairs to complete the tasks. The pieces of paper looked something like this: (I've also filled the sheet in with my answers)
 * Name: **//Emma//** ||
 * Q7 Height (cm) : **//169cm//** ||
 * Q8 Right foot (cm) : **//25cm//** ||
 * Q9 Arm span (cm) : **//176cm//** ||
 * Q10 Wrist circ (cm) : **//15cm//** ||
 * Q11 Neck circ (cm) : **//33cm//** ||
 * Q12 Popliteal length (cm) : **//46cm//** ||
 * Q13 Index finger (mm) : **//75mm//** ||
 * Q14 Ring finger (mm) : **//70mm//** ||
 * Q16 Time to school (mins) : **//27mins//** ||
 * Q17 Weight of school bag (g) : **//1000g (1kg)//** ||
 * Q24 Cell phone (yrs/mths) : **//3yrs//** ||
 * Q28 Pulse rate (per min) : **//between 65-70per min//** ||

So we measured and measured...

Then Mr Radonich wrote on the board: When we had all finished our measuring, we had to write our answers in our partners books.
 * DON'T BE A SHMUCK BY USING INCHES!**

He then reminded us about Mathex and told us that he would be making a team soon and we would do a trial test in class. Mr Radonich also reminded us that the Australian Maths competition in on 6th August and if you haven't already paid for it, do it soon! If you'd like a practise copy from a few years ago go to: []

We ended the lesson by doing a minute of yoga, pretending to be trees. By Emma.

By the way, Mr Radonich, why did you call the first lesson 'gruesome'? (just wondering)
