Graphing the Tallest Buildings in the World

This is an activity that involves Internet skills, Excel graphing and math. Students are to find and log the 10 tallest buildings in the world using an Internet search Engine. They are then directed to use this data to create a graph in Microsoft Excel. After printing their graphs there are some questions for them to answer using their graph reading skills and computation. My students enjoyed learning what the tallest buildings were and creating their graphs! Good for a technology based math center or for a whole group computer lab activity.
