    As a scientist, data collection is extremely important in our daily work.
Your task is to collect REAL data by yourself in which you will create a data table (including the four essential components of a data table- see your Groovy Graph Hint Sheet) and develop a BAR graph (including the five essential components of a graph- see your Groovy Graph Hint Sheet) of this data.
You will also have to develop an inference in regards to what you now know about your data by analyzing the data table and graph.

Draw the data table in your spiral or it can be typed .
Create your graph on the back side of this sheet or it can be created on the computer.
Develop an inference by writing it in your spiral or it can be typed.
