LO - Can you guess the learning objective from today's lesson?

Starter:  (WorkSheet) 3 x graphs showing the number of pupils in a class who like different sweets.  
Which graph represents the information best? Why? Could you draw a better graph or chart?

Class Survey.  Choose a favourite song.  Your teacher will update the google document, before you download it.

Download the class google doc from here, and enable editing. 


Favourite Chart Songs 


Following a teacher demonstration and the instructions on the spreadsheet, create different types of graph to represent song choices

What could today's learning objective be?  

Task 2 - Answer the question on the spreadsheet about which represents the information best and why?

Extension:  Carry out a quick small group survey of your choice (ie: give 5 football teams, blogs, apps, cars and ask someone to choose their favourite. Record the data.  Create an APPROPRIATE GRAPH to represent your findings.

Plenary:  What is your learning objective?  What else would you like to know about graphs and charts?  How could you improve the look of some of yours to represent findings in a better way.
