We used the energy sparks data to practice looking at real data. We answered the following questions:
1. Last Wednesday when our electricity use was highest, we used 37.21kw of electricity. This was at 7:30am. At this time, more of the ovens are switched on and staff start to arrive at school and turn on computers, kettles etc.
2. At 1am last Wednesday we were using 5 kw of electricity. We think this is about right as some appliances can’t be turned off and 5kw looks normal for our school
3. On Monday 17th June we spent the most electricity last week. This was £56.32.
4. On Saturday 22nd June we spend £16.72, this is because the school is closed.
