Activities

Outcomes

Children:
  • Show the class how to create a tree diagram of branching questions which can be used to identify each object.
  • Divide the class into groups and give each group a set of eight pictures. Ask them to create a tree diagram that can identify each picture uniquely.

Points to note

Producing a paper-based branching database or 'science key' could make a challenging piece of homework.
