Picture Graph Maker

Another cool graphing tool! Click here to go to a picture graph maker.

1) Design your survey question with a maximum of five possible options.
2) Survey at least 20 people.
3) Tally the results.
4) Go to the website.
5) Give your graph a title that tells us what the data is about.
6) Choose a picture from the drop down menu.
7) Choose your scale.
8) Label your options in the text boxes.
9) Click the plus/minus buttons to add the right number of pictures to show the correct tally for each option (taking into account your scale!).
10) Click print preview, snip your picture graph and save it.
11) Log in on EduPlex and post your graph as an image on your Maths portfolio page.

If you are doing this for homework you can either post it to your portfolio and write me a note in your homework book, OR you can print it and stick it in your book.

If you have been in my Maths group for graphing, you may like to survey people about something different which will give you two variables (like we did with the day and month of our birthdays in class) and give the scatter plot generator another try. Go to this website to access it.
