Drop Everything and Take This Second Grade Class's Adorable Viral Survey
Kara Porter's class of second graders at North Vermillion Elementary School in Cayuga, IN, is learning about graphs, so the students created a simple survey about things like food and animal preferences for their parents and friends to take in order to collect "data." Since the link was posted to the elementary school's Facebook page on March 14, the survey has gone completely viral.
"Please help our class as we study surveys and graphs," the blurb at the top of the survey page reads. "We would love to see how many responses we can get and all of the different places our responses come from. Each student in our class has created one of the questions in this survey."
Well, it turns out the class is getting its responses from way more people from tons more places than expected. After just a day, about 230,000 responses from multiple countries had been recorded. "You can just watch that number tick, tick, tick, just counting up, and they'll squeal every time we hit a big milestone," Porter told BuzzFeed. "They've been joking that we broke the internet. Every time I go to refresh and it won't work, they're like, 'Ah, we broke the internet again!'"
As for the graphs that were originally going to be made with all of the collected data, Porter says, "We are planning to graph all of this, but now I don't know how!" Take the innocent and adorable survey to inform Mrs. Porter's class on your Lego preferences, whether you prefer giraffes or zebras, and whether you would rather eat pizza or soup.
