For this station, you are part of Mrs. Fathom's sixth grade class, and today we are measuring ourselves. We will be measuring our heights, wingspan and the length of our feet. We want to see if there is a connection between these measurements (Does your foot size change with your height, or your wingspan with your height?).
 * Introduction**


 * What you will need:**
 * A measuring tape
 * InspireData (start a new database - If you need to practice how to use InspireData, look through some samples by going to "File"-->"Open Database" in InspireData)


 * What you need to do:**
 * Create a new database in InspireData.
 * Fill in the table (with labels for height, wingspan and foot length) in InspireData with each member of your group as a row in the table
 * Take a screenshot of the completed table
 * Switch to "Plot View" and create an axis plot from your data in the table
 * Take a screenshot of the completed axis plot
 * Answer the following questions?
 * Is there a relationship between height and wingspan?
 * How can you tell from the graphs?
 * Is there a relationship between height and foot length?
 * How can you tell from the graphs?


 * At the end of the station, you should have...**
 * A screenshot of your table with your data in InspireData
 * A screenshot of your axis plot
 * Your answers to the above questions


 * When finished, post the items you have "at the end of the station" to your blog (making sure to label the blog entry with the station's name and number, and labeling all sections. Then, if this is your first station - go to the next station.**
