Wheel Decide Data & Google Graphing

Ms. White’s 4th grade students at Jackson Davis have been practicing with collecting and graphing data. The students were given a few minutes to think of a scenario where they would need to make a decision. For example, when I go to Gelati Celesti, I have to choose what type of ice cream to get: Just Ask, Chocolate Peanut Butter, or Strawberry. After they had an idea, they went to wheeldecide.com and modified the wheel to reflect their own title/question and possible choices. Next they were asked to spin the wheel 25 times to collect data. After each spin, they recorded the results.

Then we went to Google where they opened a new Google Sheet and entered their data and inserted a graph. They used the chart editor within Google Sheets to modify their graphs. Here are a couple of the finished graphs:
