Our first grade students now only have the opportunity create their own polling questions to create their own custom graphs, but also learn how spreadsheet programs like Microsoft Excel can help them automatically generate graphs with their results. This student from Ms. Shepherd’s first grade class surveyed the students in his class to find out which bear was their favorite.
