*Have students survey friends and family to find out their favorite breeds of dogs. 

They could tally their responses. They could also create a tally chart or frequency chart.

 Older students could graph this information and find the mean, median, and mode.

*Learn songs about dogs.
   BINGO is an old favorite of kids.

  Lyrics

 There was a farmer had a dog,
 And BINGO was his name-O!

 B-I-N-G-O, B-I-N-G-O, B-I-N-G-O

 And BINGO was his name-O.

   Have the kids sing the complete song once.
  Then repeat the song but substitute a CLAP for the B in the dog's name.
  Next repeat the song but substitute claps for the B and I.
  Repeat but substitute claps for B, I, and N.
  Repeat but substitute claps for B, I, N, and G.
  Repeat but substitute claps for B, I, N, G, and O.
