Lesson or Project Description
Students are asked to come up with a survey question that offers 5 choices in order to gather data that can be used to create a chart or graph. The survey question must complete the sentence "What is your favorite _?" Students then use the provided data sheet to record responses from their classmates using tally marks. After the data has been collected, the students use the results to create charts or graphs in Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint. The charts or graphs can then be printed out and shared with the class or presented using a projector or interactive whiteboard.
