Dollars and Sense: Make a Graph

Go to create a graph here:

http://nces.ed.gov/nceskids/createAgraph/default.aspx?ID=2a5fd36948724938a29ca284a5b962d5

and make a graph with some of the data from the tape lessons we did before. Make sure you do two things:

  • Add your name on the “Data” tab under Title or Source
  • At the end under “Print/Save” send an email to me at mizmercer@gmail.com with your work

Thanks and good luck!
