Activity Guide - Filtering Data - Unit 5 Lesson 3

This document provides an activity guide for students to analyze data sets on female state legislators and women running for elected office in 2020. For the first data set, students are asked to filter the data for different years and create histograms to chart the percentage of female legislators. They then answer questions comparing the representation of women in legislatures from the year they were born to 2019. For the second data set, students filter the data to determine which states had at least one woman run for governor and which had more than 10 women win their primary races. Charts are included with the answers.
