Start the school year off with an engaging and educational data collection activity designed to get students thinking critically about real-world data. This interactive worksheet allows students to survey their classmates on fun, relatable topics like how many siblings they have, what time they wake up for school, and which month their birthday falls in. These simple yet effective questions are a great way to break the ice and introduce students to basic data analysis.
