  1. A Little Graphing Refresher

  2. Today’s Learning Goal • We are not learning anything ‘new’ today, but we are refreshing our understanding of how to graph. The skills we are focusing on are: • Remembering that the number one goal of a graph is to efficiently communicate information that is easy to understand. • Remembering to use the proper tools when constructing a graph. • Remembering our checklist of “Good Graph” elements

  3. What tools do we need to construct a graph? • Common sense and effort. • A pencil. We work in pencil first. • Graph paper … it makes life easier  • A Ruler • A RULER • That sort of long thing that makes straight lines … what’s it called? Oh ya! A RULER!!!!!! • Coloured pencils to make it look pretty.

  4. What does a good graph look like? A PROPER SCALE A TITLE COLOUR BAR LABELS AXIS LABELS EVENLY SPACED BARS

  5. Your Task: • Get a partner. • Get all the necessary tools you need to complete a “good graph”. • Select a characteristic that you can observe and graph in the class. • Colour of shoes • Eye Colour • Hair Colour • Colour of shirt

  6. Organizing your Data • Create a table with sensible categories.

  7. Using Your Data • Examine you the data you have collected and construct a “Good Graph” • Both partners should construct a graph.

  8. All Done? • Grade 4s: Math Textbook • p. 56+ 57 A-E and #1 a,b,c,d • Grade 5s: Math Textbook • p. 60+61 A-D and #1-3
