1C Science investigation - Is the oldest always the tallest person?

Lesson: Science

Class: Year 1 - 1C Year: 2021 - 2022

Science enquiry - We wanted to find out if the oldest person in our class was infact the tallest (not including our teacher).

First we all got into a line and then moved into age order. We then labelled the oldest child and the youngest child. Some of us moved out of the line so that we could observe and discuss what we could see. We used measuring tapes to measure the oldest and the youngest children and recorded our results on our whiteboards. We then collated all of the data to enable us to answer the question. We discovered that the answer to the question was NO! Because our oldest child was not the tallest in the class.
