Line and Venn Diagrams

What did I do? I created a line chart using the information I found on a website. Here is my line chart image. It shows the expenditures per pupil for WV, PA, FL, and TX.

My Line Chart

What did I learn? I learned how to create a line chart.

How could I use it? This would be great to use in the classroom to show students the differences between charts and how to create them.
