Chapter Projects

Students have spent the last few days learning about tables and graphs. Today they turned in the first part of their chapter project. In part one, students chose a topic that they were interested in and surveyed 40 - 50 people regarding their topic. The topics they chose were mostly about favorite sports, subjects, hobbies, etc. They then took their data and organized it in a frequency table.

For the rest of this week, in class, we will take the data they collected and display it in a bar graph and then discuss ways to make their graphs misleading. We will use our class time this week to further investigate graphing and statistics. Since this is ISTEP week our class atmosphere will be relaxed and no homework will be given.
