Two-Way Tables — Walking and Bicycling to School and Work Class

How do the people in your household commute?

Raise awareness of this day by sharing our Two Way Tables- Walking and Biking to School and Work activity with our students in Grades 8 - 12.

Students will look at and compare data on the percentage of men and women who used nonmotorized transportation to get to school and work. Students can determine and discuss possible associations between different variables by calculating the relative frequencies using two-way tables.
