Dec 3 – Census At School Assignment:  

Taking the results of our class (click on the correct link below), take FOUR of the question items and present the results in the form of 4 different charts or graphs.  For one question item, calculate the mean (average), median (middle number), mode (most common number) and range (highest – lowest).

Compare our class results to the canadian average from 2016/2017 (see third link below).  Next class, you have one library period to work on completing charts and need to submit by printing out or emailing your work to:  jerry.chien@burnabyschools.ca
