The Great Whale Of Kansas

by Richard W. Jennings


Blue Project

Dodge City is located along the Arkansas River in southwestern Kansas. It was made famous by lawmen Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson. Your project for Kansas is to make a bar graph of the average temperatures of Dodge City. Start by getting a piece of printer paper. Hold it so it is longer horizontally. You will need to set both the X and Y axes. Remember that you will need to divide the X axis into 12 even section. When you set the range for the Y axis determine what the high and low is. YOU SHOULD NOT SET THE RANGE FROM ZERO. Use a ruler and color to help your graph come to life. Include a title and your name to complete the project.
