Christmas Surveys

Our Christmas graphing continued today. We are learning how to read data using different types of graphs. We also continue to work on converting one piece of data on a graph into another type of graph (for instance data on a tally chart into a pictograph).

Yesterday, we spent much of our day composing survey questions. We used our questions to poll teachers and students around our school. We created a tally chart to track our data. We consulted our Must Have checklist to see what we needed to add to our work. 
Today, we used our tally chart data to create a pictograph! Students worked with their partners to create pictographs. We consulted our Pictograph Must Have checklist to make sure we included all of the important information. Students are recognizing that the number of tallies is the same number of pictures in our pictographs. 

Great work grade 2! Our charts will be posted in our classroom to remind us how to read graphs once we get back from our Christmas holidays.
