Last year I used fast foods as a way to teach students graphing (and nutrition). When surveying students as to their favorite fast food restaurants McDonald's was often at the top.
This infographic provides a great deal of information that may be new to students. This infographic shows:
* Just how big McDonald's is (and the number may surprise you)
* The one location where the Golden Arches are not golden
* Where McDonald's are located (a world map with percentages of McDonald's based on area)
* The one fast food restaurant that has more locations that McDonald's
* The number of employees worldwide (as well as the number of hamburgers and customers served)
And much more.
You can have fun with maps that look at fast food locations across the US as a tool for students to learn how to interpret visualizations as well as do some calculations. One source you might check out is listed below.
