In this activity, children will color the correct number of boxes in a graph to show their choices and then show their understanding of the graph's meaning through teacher-led class discussion. You would like to know in advance which of four snacks children prefer. Pass out Favorite Snacks . Identify the four snacks pictured at the bottom of the page. Children cut out the entire strip of four, and then choose and cut out the picture of the snack they would prefer to have at the end of the month.
Students are to color one square in their graphs.
Continue until all the children's choices have been identified and their graphs completed. Lead discussion and ask questions to help children interpret the graph. Ask children to discuss similarities and differences between the two graphs.
