Graphing Surveys

Objective: 
Students will compile information about school principals using a tally system.

Students will use different types of graphs to display information.

Procedure:
Use the survey to collect information about principals.  Group the class into three groups. Each group will be responsible for one set of questions (the principal, the school, and the participating class.) Compile the information and tally it onto a spreadsheet.

Each group will graph their information onto chart paper to share with the class and school.  They will then create their graph on the computer  (using a spreadsheet program) and these can be posted on a web  page.
                 
Evaluation:
Were the students able to create a tally that allowed for all  responses?  Did the tally accurately reflect the responses received?  Could the students create a graph to clearly display their results?  Were they able to create their graph on the computer?  Could they read other student's graphs to find information?
