Did your #SAMHE monitor get switched off over the October break? or perhaps it's been off since the summer holidays?? 🫢 No problem, but please make sure it is switched on again now. That way it is sending data to help us understand and improve school #AirQuality - thanks!

🏜️Remember those really red sunsets last Autumn when Saharan dust was blown to the UK? Try our Data Detectives activity 'Investigating a #ParticulateMatter Event' to explore whether it increased the levels of #PM2_5 in UK classrooms. #PM #AirQuality #ClassroomAir #STEM 🧵1/2
Pink and white front card for the activity 'Investigating a Particulate Matter Event' with the description 'This activity explores whether a Saharan desert dust event increased the levels of particulate matter in UK classrooms. You will use data analysis skills to identify average concentrations of particulate matter and compare these averages at different times.' The card is labelled as a 'Data Detectives' activity which takes c. 20 mins.

#SAMHE supports #mathseducation at all levels, from number recognition and understanding values onwards. For #KS5, download #SAMHE data as a csv file to practice interrogating large datasets. You can customise the timeframe and compare between metrics.
