Data Collection and Graphs

A local nature group wants to know which native bird children would most like to learn about. Read the survey results, answer the questions, then make a bar graph. Use the scale shown in your graph.

Tūī

Kākāpō

Kea

Pūkeko

Read and reason

Use the survey results above for Questions 1–6.

1.How many children chose the kākāpō?
2.Which bird was chosen by the fewest children?
3.How many more children chose tūī than kea?
4.How many children took part in the survey altogether?
5.True or false? More than half of the children chose tūī. Explain using the total number of votes.
6.The nature group can make one extra display about either kākāpō or kea. Which bird should they choose if they want to use the children’s votes to guide their choice?
  • Kākāpō
  • Kea

Make a bar graph

Use the survey results to draw one bar for each bird. Give your graph a title, label the categories, and label the number of votes. Make each step on the vertical scale worth 1 vote.

Draw your graph here.
7.Check your graph: which bar should be tallest, and how many votes should it show?
8.Imagine you are planning a new survey about what children enjoy doing outdoors. Write one clear question and give three possible answer choices.
9.A child says, “Because tūī got the most votes in this survey, it must be every child’s favourite bird.” Is that a fair conclusion? Why or why not?
