Chrysanthemum


A great book on self-confidence and lessons on how not to be a good classmate, but my favorite lesson from this book is math!!

Chrysanthemum is 13 letters in it - half the letters in the alphabet! How many letters are in your name and what does that number correlate to?

Make a name graph (bar or picto) for the class and see who has the longest, or the shortest.

Make a scatter plot for frequency of the number of letters.

Compute the mean, mode, and median of the letters!
