Question 1 The diagram below is the data handling cycle, and it
is used in emergent mathematics as a tool to collect, organise,
represent, and interpret numerical information or data. 1. In
the Foundation Phase, learners are taught to work with all four
elements of the data handling process, however, in the Grade R
classroom, learners are taught how to work with data, starting
with collecting, sorting and then representing the data. In two
to three sentences, explain why Grade R learners only stop at
representing the data. (2) 2. In your own words, compare and
contrast the sequence in which Grade R learners master data
handling skills to the sequence in which Grades 1 to 3 master
data handling. Write it in two paragraphs of about 5 to 6 lines
or about 100 words each. (5x2=10) 6 3. Read the case study
below, and then follow the instructions provided at the bottom:
In Miss Mofokeng’s classroom, it’s circle time in the morning;
the discussion is based on the theme of the week; “feelings”.
Miss Mofokeng asks each child to pick out a face from the
container full of cardboard cutout emojis that show how they
feel that morning. The emojis show the following expressions:
sad, happy, tired, excited, and worried. Miss Mofokeng now has
twenty cutouts in the middle of the circle. 3.1. Suppose you are
Miss Mofokeng; plan and involve learners in a data handling
, activity based on the case study above. In your activity, include
• the problem statement/question (2) • present the activity
using the steps of the data handling cycle. This should also
include at least three questions in each step, as well as
illustrations to guide the children in the process. (4x7=28) 3.2.
After completing the activity in 3.1, answer the following
questions: • Did the data-handling process solve the
investigation? (1) • What went well? (2) • What would you do
differently next time (remember, there is always room for
improvement)? (2) [47] EMA1501 ASSESSMENT 4/0/2024 7
Question 1
1. In the Foundation Phase, learners are taught to work with
all four elements of the data handling process; however, in the
Grade R classroom, learners are taught how to work with data,
starting with collecting, sorting, and then representing the
data. In two to three sentences, explain why Grade R learners
only stop at representing the data.
Grade R learners focus on collecting, sorting, and representing
data because these foundational skills help them understand
basic concepts of organization and visualization of information.
Representing data is an appropriate endpoint for this stage, as it
allows young learners to work with concrete examples and
simple representations, such as pictograms or bar graphs,
without overwhelming them with more complex analysis or
interpretation.
