In this task students are asked to come up with a survey question of their own after brainstorming things that interest themselves. They will then survey the grade level to collect data. Once the data collection is done, each student will create either a scaled picture or scaled bar graph based on the data they collected. Finally, they will create a report, either a TV news segment or a newspaper article, describing and analyzing the results from their survey.

Draw a scaled picture graph and a scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories. Solve one- and two-step "how many more" and "how many less" problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs. For example, draw a bar graph in which each square in the bar graph might represent 5 pets.
