Stats for Cool Math Cats Days 2 and 3 |
Day Two. In the classroom on the computer:
graphing your data
You may use the program provided or you can use MS Word or MS Excel if you prefer. http://nces.ed.gov/nceskids/createagraph/
Which ever program you choose, be sure your students know how to work it. Remember to have students save their graphs at the end of the class period. Save the file with the subject of the data and the students group # they have .example (save as: graph sports group1) should the students make a mistake explain this in the body of the email. All graphs must be emailed to: joyce@kidlink.net
Within the 3 school days of submission (provided your partnered school doesn't have a holiday, snow day, network down, or other emergency) your students’ data will be posted and ready. It is very important you keep communication open with your paired teacher and to have a few contingency lesson plans available. Taking time to navigate this site is also recommended while you wait for the data.
