Literacy and Numeracy Week

Numeracy Activity
MSS participated in the national activity of completing a shuttle run and recording the data. Our class had to get into four groups and complete a 20 metre shuttle run as many times as possible in 2 minutes, 4 minutes then 6 minutes.
Our results were:
2 Minutes: 53 shuttles
4 Minutes: 145 shuttles
6 Minutes: 206 shuttles.
After completing this we calculated that we ran 16160 metres (or 16.16km), with an average distance of 646.4m. We found that our best time was 36 shuttles per minute at the second try of 4 minutes. We will keep using the data later in the week and compare our class to other schools in Australia.
