Graphing- Day 2 Author: Randi Longmeyer and Ann O’Malley
NE Standards: 4.1.3
Students will be describe and apply relationships between numbers by order,
comparison, and across the operation, such as subtraction as the opposite of
addition and multiplication as repeated addition. 4.5.1
Students will collect, organize, represent, and interpret numerical and
categorical data and clearly communicate the findings. Objectives:
make a list of rules and post them, make a bar
graph on the floor using the girls as the objects used to make a bar graph
describing how everyone gets to school, make a circle graph describing the
relationship of each girl to a favorite school subject
Provision for special needs: discuss the rules and post them, so everyone knows
the rules Materials: masking
tape, labels for each bar on the floor, worksheet to make circle graph on,
markers/crayons Procedures:
Springboard: Teacher: We
will write down the rules that the girls make. We will then discuss the
different ways to get to school, have the girls take a seat on the floor in the
column that they belong in, and guide the girls in a discussion about why we
make different types of graph and how we can use them. We will lead the girls in
gathering information to make a circle graph about their favorite subjects and
guide them as they make their own. Each girl will then hang her graph on the
wall to show the different ways you can make graphs by using different symbols
and colors. Student: Each girl will take a turn making a rule for our
list. The girls will then move onto the floor to make our bar graph that shows
how everyone gets to school. The girls will answer questions regarding the graph
that we made on the floor. The girls will each give their information to the
teachers so we can write it on the board for everyone to see. The girls will
then help make an example circle graph on the board, so we can show how each
graph can have the same information but still look very different. The girls
will make their own graph, using their favorite colors/shapes to label each
section. The graphs will then be displayed so everyone can see the diversity. Closure: We
will hang our circle graphs and discuss the information that our circle graphs
give us
