1. Topic-
|
| Organize data, read and interpret data in line graphs, pictographs,
and bar graphs |
| |
|
2. Content-
|
| Begin looking at chart/graphs and start to understand what data
means as a whole class. |
| |
|
3. Goals: Aims/Outcomes-
|
1. Students become familiar with graphs and charts, start to learn
about the different parts of a graph.
2. Students will begin to understand what data is, how one can collect
data, and the different ways to represent data.

4. Objectives-
|
4.01 - Collect, organize, describe and display data using Venn diagrams
(three sets) and pictographs where symbols represent multiple units
(2's, 5's, and 10's).
5.01 - Identify, describe, translate, and extend repeating, and growing
patterns. |

6. Procedures/Methods-

A. Introduction-
1. Start by asking the whole class "what is data?", let the class
make guesses and discuss as a whole class. Continue to ask questions
about data, for example, "how does someone collect data?", "what can
be data?", "how does one show data?", etc. Allow time for students
to share many ideas.
2. Write Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Purple on the board,
have students line up in front of their favorite color.

B. Development-
1. While students are still standing in categories, ask them what
color is the favorite as a class, ask them what color is the least.
Have a bar graph ready and record the data onto it while students
are still standing in lines.
2. Ask students to sit back in their seats. Have the students look
at the graph and ask them if it is the same data that they just collected.
3. Allow students time to discuss and point out features on the graph.
Then ask questions about it, like, "what does this graph show?" "does
anyone know what type of graph this is?", "what do you think the favorite
color of the class is?", "how do you know", etc.
4. Point to different parts of Graph A, explaining the different pieces,
explain to the students that it is a bar graph, let students give
ideas of other things they could record by using a bar graph. |
