  1. Graphing Creating a picture of your data

  2. A graph is… a picture of your data. Make sure it is a clear picture that helps your reader understand your data.

  3. TAIL…elements of a good graph T = title (must name the graph) A = axes (x and y axes for line graphs, bar graphs, histograms, scatterplots, etc) I = intervals (fit your data to your graph using intervals that make sense. AVOID BREAKS!) L = labels (titles for the axes otherwise we don’t know what we are looking at!)

  4. Bar Graph-compare data elements

  5. Double Bar Graph-compare two groups

  6. Line Graph (continuous data)

  7. Double Line Graph-compare 2 sets of continuous data

  8. Circle Graph or Pie chart (compare to the whole)

  9. Scatter plot-to show data patterns

  10. Box and Whisker-shows outliers
