Step-by-step, illustrated instructions guide students as they research the issue, record survey results, and graph data. Based on their findings, they publish a report that recommends a solution.


The technology project includes 12 assignments and 6 extension activities for Grades 3-6. Receive lessons for both Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets. Pick the version that is right for you! View a free sample.
