Survey Questions

Part of our math unit on data requires students to come up with a survey question that they can ask their classmates as a way to collect information about our group.  Students worked in pairs to come up with their question (which needed to be worded so that there were only two possible answer choices), gather their data, decide on a system to ensure that they asked their question everyone on our class, as well as keep track of their data.  Their next task involved creating a representation to show the information that they found out about our class.  Students completed a planning sheet before starting the project and then a final sheet which had them think about what they actually found out.  They had a lot of fun and did a great job!!
