In this resource from CensusAtSchool. students compare data on month of birth from 45,000 South African students given in a table to the same data represented in a bar chart. Students are asked to consider reasons for month of birth and why it is appropriate to use percentages for large data sets.Students are then required to collect their own data, construct bar charts and compare their data to the given data.

This is an opportunity to process data using Excel.
