      James said, "I asked do you like tennis or soccer best? I drew a bar graph. My graph shows how many people like tennis or soccer.  9 people like tennis and 10 people like soccer.  Next time I will ask how many people like different reptiles like snakes, tuataras and lizards.”
      
      Cory said, "I learnt to ask questions like how many people like cake, donuts, apple crumble, ice-cream and fudge.  I then I colored in my bar graph. I found out 10 people like donuts, 2 people like cake, 3 people like apple crumble, 5 people like ice-cream and 1 person likes fudge. Next time I want to pick different foods to ask."
