Wanna Help With A Project?
We’re reviewing graphing and to make it more fun - YOU get to provide the input for the graph. Come on, don’t disappoint a second grader! We won’t have much to graph if you don’t answer.
Graph #1: What’s Your Favorite Bug?
You can pick any insect, no limitations, just tell us what it is and we’ll graph it in a bar graph.
Graph #2: Cake or Pie?
Do you prefer cake or pie the most? For the purpose of this exercise, you have to pick one or the other. You can’t say “both” - that’s cheating. We’ll use tally marks to see which one “wins.”
Graph #3: What’s your favorite color?
Pick a color, any color, and let us know!
Thanks y’all!!!
*Note: You’ll have through Monday the 19th to answer, we’ll be making our graphs on Tuesday the 20th (We don’t do school work on Mondays.)

If I HAD to choose a ‘favorite’ bug (ewe!) I’d say a walking stick (I think that is what it called)….despite being a bug, I think they are one of God’s amazing creatures! HE is so creative!
Pie!
RED!!!

Deanne - I agree.. the walking stick is amazing.. one example of our amazing God.
I think I’m a pie person, too. Cherry. Pecan. YUMMM.
Karen - Oh, I love ladybugs. It’s one of the few bugs I’ll touch.
Thanks so much for the answers!

Fav. Bug: Rolly Polly!
Cake or Pie?: I’d have to say cake, just because I don’t eat nearly as much pie.
Fav. Color: Green, granny smith apple green. It just makes me happy.

Oh yeah, thought I’d add that my kindergarteners love graphing the candy in a bag; colors of Skittles, sayings on thoses Valentine hearts, types of chocolate in the Hershey’s mix… Of course a good mother wouldn’t let her children eat all of that candy… no. No a good mother would sacrifice and quietly slip all the dark chocolate ones from the pile. Definitly.

Kelly -
LOL! I like the way you think. Chocolate pie. Chocolate candies. YUM. (And you’re right, it’s not healthy for them to have all the candy, we HAVE to help eat it.)

[...] Promised, Some Graphs First of all, thanks for all the info. One of the drawbacks to homeschooling is that you can’t poll the class and gain a whole lot [...]
