Write up your enquiry so far • Aim – what are you trying to find out? • Hypotheses – what do you think you will find • Method – describe your plan – what you did, how you did it, why you chose your questions. Include your results sheet. • Present your results (see next slide)

I need: To draw these different forms of graphs from Chart Wizard on Excel from supplied data. To draw a simple line, bar or histogram graph by hand but with poor form‡ To gain a Level 4 I need: To gain a Level 5 I need: To gain a Level 6 I need: To gain a Level 7 I need:
To recognise two further forms of presentation: pie, scatter graphs and when they should be used. To draw these different forms of graphs from Chart Wizard on Excel from supplied data. To draw a simple line, bar or histogram graph by hand but with good form‡ To draw pie, scatter graphs by hand but with poor form‡ To recognise climate graphs and when to use them. To draw pie, scatter graphs by hand but with good form‡ To draw climate graphs by hand with poor form‡ To recognise the use of other forms of presentation in appropriate ways, e.g. flow lines, isoline maps, choropleth maps, proportional symbols, density maps. Make good attempt to utilise other forms of presentation in appropriate ways. To formulate their own enquiry questions using information from graphs as evidence.
