Data Collection, Tallying and Graphing
Overview
Description
These worksheets will introduce your students to data collection, organizing data into column graphs and analysis of the data. Students receive a worksheet, circulate around the class asking the specified question of their peers. They record the data as a tally. They then return to their seats and use the data they have collected to create a graph. There are then some questions to answer to help with analyzing the graph.
There are three levels in this graphing resource. Students may work through these levels as the year progresses, or the worksheets may be used to differentiate instruction within the class, as needed.
LEVEL ONE: (p 3 - 12) Students are provided with a question and the tally charts.
LEVEL TWO: (p 13 - 16) Students are provided with a question and must create their own tally charts.
