Maths Statistics Coursework Hypotheses My first hypothesis is that on average boys are taller then girls. I obviously cannot prove this by measuring every child in the world. Instead I will take a sample of the children at Mayfield School to prove this. I also cannot check every pupil of Mayfield School, so will take a random stratified sample of 200 children. This will contain the height and averages of 102 boys and 98 girls, all ages between 11 and 16.
I will first show my tally chart, which shows the ages and varying height of the children, detailing boys and girls separately. Males Grouped Height Ages 11/12 Aged 13 Aged 14 Aged 15 Aged 16 Total 1. 20 up to but not including 1. 40 0 0 0 0 0 0 1. 40 up to but not including 1. 45 3 2 0 0 0 5 1.

The Term Paper on Elementary, Middle and Highschool Boy-Girl Relationship
Is it too soon to talk about boy/girl relationships in elementary school? Of course it is, you say! Well, you may not want to hear about it, or you may choose denial over reality, but the fact remains that children are playing out the cultural role that they are being taught as early as 2nd grade. Therefore, the relationship between boys and girls at every school (Christian and non- Christian) is ...

40 m, yet there are 4 girls who are below this mark, aged 11-13. These results obviously don’t prove very much, because 4/98 is a very small fraction.

The Essay on How to meet the learning needs of mixed age groups in the home-based setting
One of the biggest advantages of mixed age groups is that they make us really analyse the individual needs, interests, and temperaments of each child in the group. We can then plan and provide for the next steps in learning, by getting to know our group of children very well, and making careful observations on them, as individuals, what they do and how they interact with others. This knowledge can ...

The Term Paper on Group Response Techniques
Active student responding is a critical component of effective instruction in class room . One low tech strategy developed to facilitate active student responding during group instruction involves the use of response cards . Typically this approach involves the teacher asking questions during instruction and having each student write down his / her answers on the response cards and then display ...
The FX is the frequency column, multiplied by the mid-point value column. The totals in the F and FX are all the amounts added up. I have calculated the mean by dividing the FX column total, by the Frequency column total. Total means 11/12 13 14 15 16 Average means Males 1. 5346 1.

The only exception to this is that 15 year old girls have a higher mean height then the 16 year old girls. I have also calculated the cumulative frequency’s, for both boys and girls, separately.
