(4) 4-6 Real World Data series. The concept behind this series is promising: let's teach students about graphs using real data related to a topic. In Planet, for example, a double-page spread briefly discusses Earth's layers (crust, mantle, outer core, inner core), and a bar graph reveals their different thicknesses. Some stock photos and illustrations decorate the pages. Sources for the graphical data are not noted. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Real World Data titles: Graphing Habitats, Graphing Water, Graphing Planet Earth, Graphing Energy, Graphing Food and Nutrition, and Graphing Population.
