Bar graphs at Riverside. Are our questions good enough?

Grade fives were learning about data and graphing. What kinds of information can be graphed, are our questions not specific enough to give us the answer to the question that we came up with?

Ms. Raimbault and her grade 5 class are looking at the wall graph that they created. Is it good enough, do they need to develop better questions to get at the answers they are looking for?
From this day on the students had a question of the day. They were to put their picture where they fit in the graph. Students were very quick to realize that the simple questions were not good enough and reworded their questions to gather the most information.
Great work on "Blooms" Questioning Strategies.
