Qualitative vs. Quantitative Data

I introduced my students to qualitative and quantitative date from the first week of school. Students would make their own qualitative and quantitative t-charts in their science journals for investigations.  Sometimes I would place random objects in from of them and they'd have to describe it on their t-chart. Other times, they would use it while doing their large science investigations to describe the results.  This anchor chart stayed up in my classroom the entire year as a guide during science.
