Author Description

Survey and Statistics is an excellent introduction to the new school year. The students fill out a survey with questions that give you an insight to your new students' needs and personality. The information from the surveys is analyzed. The final product is a school almanac. The almanacs make a wonderful addition to the school library. With Survey and Statistics, we have done all of the work for you. Each activity comes with a complete lesson plan with objectives, opening activity, student activity and closure. The worksheets are easy to understand and easy to reproduce. The Statistical Survey Worksheets are used with Lessons 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8. It might be a good idea to collect it at the end of each class period. Materials needed for this unit, in addition to the enclosed worksheets, are several graphs from magazines or newspapers. This unit has been used in several middle school classrooms with great success. We hope you have as much fun with it as we did!
