Students learn about collecting and displaying data by making graphs about classmates' characteristics.
Materials:
A large piece of butcher block paper, tape, marker
Plan: - Introduce the lesson by discussing that everyone has similarities and differences in their appearances.
- Direct the discussion toward hair color.
- Explain to the kids that a graph is used to show information in a different way.
- Go around the room and have the children tell what each persons hair color is when you point to them.
- Make the graph.
- Have them count each graph section. Talk about what the most popular color was and what was the least.
- This can also be done with eye color or if their hair is short/long or curly/straight!
