| Summary |
Dodly is setting up his own cafe. But what food should he serve? And how much of each type of food does he need? With Flynn's help he uses data to answer his questions. Flynn all the while is asking the question "will I ever get fed?". Aspects of data explored include: generation questions, and predicting answers; sorting and classifying; representing data; and interpreting data.Through two puppet monsters, Dodly and Flynn, animations, songs and rhymes, Count Us In takes young viewers through a lively and fun exploration of mathematics topics. Areas covered follow mathematic curriculum content strands investigating pattern, number, measurement and chance and data.In each program the content develops from the use of concrete representation of numbers to exploring problems where there is less reliance on such representation. There is also a strong emphasis on mathematical language and on encouraging estimation and self-correction |
