Story by Number Journal

When a scientist has finished her fieldwork, she always writes up her notes and analyzes her data. Write your analysis here, starting with a few simple questions.

Analyze the Graphs
What stories do your graphs tell? Who got the best grades?
 
How many hours of television did the person watch?
 
Do you think there is a relationship between TV viewing and school grades? What makes you think that?
 
Did the number of hours of TV watched affect both math and English grades for the people you surveyed? Only math? Only English? Or neither?
 
 
 
Cool Views
What graph or chart style worked best to tell your number story? Why?
 
 
 
Science Surprises
Were you surprised by the story that your numbers told?
