We are a class of Prep students, sharing all that's happening in our classroom. This blog was started by the first group of Gems, a Year One class back in 2007. We, the 2012 Gems are proud to continue on the conversation. You can read, watch and listen as we share our learning journey - a journey where we 'learn to blog' and 'blog to learn'. Please visit regularly to see what's new and join in the conversation - we'd love for you to be part of our learning.

MORE GRAPHING FUN

1M,
Here are links to some great sites I found that
will help you display your data in a bar graph.

Here's the graph I created on this site after I entered in Tierney's data.
To save your graph just take a picture of your screen - press the 'Alt' key (beside spacebar)and the 'Print Screen' key ( top right of keyboard).
Then open up PowerPoint and paste it into a slide and save as a jpeg. Then you can upload it to your blog.

I created this graph with BJ's data at CREATE A GRAPH.


This site allows you to print or save. It also shows you some other types of graphs you can use to display your data.


HAVE A GO AT GATHERING SOME DATA AMONGST YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND USE ONE OF THESE SITES TO CREATE YOUR GRAPH.



And if you're feeling like a challenge, play this DATA PICKING game.

In this game you click on each person to gather data and add tally marks into a table. The word 'frequency' just means 'how many'.Then you choose the graph that represents your data. The tricky part is that it's not a BAR GRAPH, it's a PIE GRAPH. Want to find out what that is?.....Play the game!
