Graphing on the Computer


Today we learnt how to make a bar graph. We chose to share information about eye colour in Room 17. First we made a tally chart to record the information.

Eye Colours
Brown                                    6 people
Blue                                      7 people
Green                                    6 people
Hazel                                    6 people

We first made our bar graph as a class using paper, it took a long time to rule the lines and make it look tidy. Mrs Howison then showed how to make it in a Excel spreadsheet and that was very quick. We will make one on the computer next week.
