This is an overview of four lessons which can be taught to fifth and sixth class about the census. In the first one explains what a census is, how often it is done, who partakes in it, what it is used for and who conducts it. The second lesson explores where the census is conducted, when it began and what the information is used for. The third lesson looks at the importance of how questions are phrased and the final lesson looks at graphs and how the results are presented.
