Making a Graph for Science Class.

Purpose of a graph To visually display information or data collected during an experiment. Create a “snapshot” of the experiment.

Create a graph using the data from yesterday’s “Drops on a Penny” – What type should we use? Circle Plotted Point Bar Graph What is the X axis? What is the Y axis? What is the title? What should the legend look like?

What to include X axis with label Y axis with label Key or legend Title of graph

Try one on your own Let’s pick a category. Make a data table. Gather data. Create graph.
