Survey a Large Group Handout

Activity Narrative

The purpose of this activity is for students to survey a large group of students. This data set will be used in the next lesson to make a scaled picture graph and a scaled bar graph. This process could take 2 or 3 days, depending on how many students in your school are surveyed.

A blank table for recording survey results is included in the blackline master, but students also can use lined paper.

MLR8 Discussion Supports. Synthesis: Provide students with the opportunity to rehearse with a partner what they will say before they share with the whole class.
Advances: Speaking

Engagement: Develop Effort and Persistence. Invite students to generate a list of shared expectations for group work. Record responses on a display, and keep it visible during the activity.
Supports accessibility for: Social-Emotional Functioning

Launch

Groups of 4
“You will be asking your survey question to a lot of students. Let’s think about ways to prepare for it so that you can collect data smoothly.”
“Discuss the questions in the activity with your group.”
3–5 minutes: group work time
Share responses.
Consider giving each group a copy of the table to record their survey results.
Students may wish to create a display that shows their question and answer choices. Provide access to tools for creating a display, in case requested.

Activity

15 minutes: in-class survey time
Give students additional time if surveying students in another class.

Your group will survey a lot of people. This means asking your survey question and giving the answer choices repeatedly.

To prepare for the work ahead, discuss these questions with your group:

How will you present the survey question and answer choices? Who will present them?
How will you record and organize the responses? Who will record them?
How will you make sure you don't record a response from the same student multiple times?
