Stop Bullying with Data Percentages
Overview
Students use percentages to examine data on bullying while building civic skills of explaining and analyzing information and arguments. Using previous knowledge of fractions and percentages, students examine current data about bullying from the CDC. Students then create a campaign for the school community that would provide data on bullying in the school. As a follow-up, students can present their campaign to the larger governing bodies in their schools.
