    1. Interpreting Data Quiz - after you finish the lesson above, take this quiz
12. Overview of a Bar Graph by Nicole Carroll followed by a practice quiz
13. Overview of a Line Graph by Nicole Carroll followed by a practice quiz
14. Play Ball - collect data to put on a picture graph (Author - Sandi King)
