Graphing
Welcome to the world of graphing. You will learn about collecting data, organizing the results, and how to make a pictograph or bar graph to display your information. Please check out each section to preview information and participate in activities. At the end of your journey, you will need to demonstrate that you can make a paper copy and an online version of a pictograph or bar graph.

Identify a real life situation to gather data over time; make a
hypothesis as to the outcome; design and implement a method to collect,
organize, and analyze the results to make a conclusion; evaluate the validity
of the hypothesis based upon collected data; design a mode of presentation
using a pictograph and a bar graph (with and without technology).
