Week 4 (part 2)Today we will use the flip chart of animals to create a spreadsheet. You will dissect the flip chart to find how many of each animal you see. Together we will input our findings into the spreadsheet and create a graph of the number of animals found and your favorite animals shown.
Teacher: Click on the image above to open the Excel spreadsheet. Click on the 'flip chart' hyperlink to open the flip chart (page forward until you find the animals page). Have students count each animal as listed in the corresponding Excel spreadsheet. Write the number (or data) on the spreadsheet. Mark/draw across each animal as you verify the count. At the end have students vote once and count the number of students to favorite each animal. |
