Lesson:

Vocabulary

Data are information taken from facts.


Data collection sheet is where data are recorded.
Questionnaire is a set of questions
Data processing is when the data that have been collected and recorded is simplified.
Data presentation is a way of showing data to other people in a way that is easy to read such as by
graphs, charts, and pictures.
Interpreting data means to read and understand what the data are telling us.

The five stages of handling data:


1. Collecting data
2. Recording data
3. Processing data
4. Representing data
5. Interpreting data

Ask students where data are found. (Television, magazines, newspapers, home, school, work, libraries,
etc.)

Introduce pictographs. Pictographs are graphs that use pictures to show data. A key is used to show
what each picture on the graphs means. Every pictograph must have a key.

Draw the pictograph below on the chalkboard or a transparency. Have students identify the key and its
meaning. Ask students questions about the pictograph.

Tell students that Mrs. Jones asked her class to name their favorite subject. They were given a choice
of four subjects: math, reading, science, and social studies.

My Favorite Subject
Math X X X X X X
Reading X X X X
Science X X
Social Science X X X

Key: X means 1 student

448
Ask: How many students chose Science? (2)
Which subject was most popular? (Math)
What is the title of the pictograph? (My favorite subject)

Draw the following pictograph on the chalkboard or a transparency.

Candy Bars Bought By Sue’s Friends


Dana
Kevin
Mike
Linda

Key: means 2 candy bars

Ask questions such as: What is the name of the pictograph? (Candy Bars by Sue’s friends)
What does mean? (1 Candy bar)
How many candy bars did Linda buy? (3)
Who purchased the most? (Kevin) Least? (Linda)

Game: Direct students to play in groups of 2 or 4.


Materials: Deck of shuffled cards placed face down; sheet for pictograph.
Rules: 1. Two students choose two of the suits (clubs and hearts or spades and diamonds.) If
four students play each will choose one suit.
2. Turn over the top card on the correct line.
3. Continue turning over the cards and drawing the pictures on the sheet.
4. The winner is the person who chooses the first suit to have five pictures

A Pictograph

A pictograph uses picture symbols to help you understand data. In the pictograph below, each pizza
symbol stands for 80 pizzas sold. How many pizzas does Pie in the Sky sell weekly?

Average Weekly Pizza Sales

Place Amount

Dalta’s Pizza

Pizza Place

Pie in the Sky

Bonita’s Pizza

= 80 pizzas

Pie in the Sky’s sales are shown as two and one half pizzas. The key below the pictograph shows that
each picture of a whole pizza represents 80 pizzas. Pie in the Sky’s sales are represented by two and
one half pizza symbols.

⇒ 2 × 80 pizzas 160 pizzas


=
⇒ + × 80 pizzas
1
= 40 pizzas
2
about 200 pizzas

The answer is: Pie in the Sky sells about 200 pizzas a week.

453
Use this pictograph to ask the students some questions before doing the activity.

Example: What was the difference from 1986 to 1987?


What year had the least amount of prize money?

Educational Strategies/Instructional Procedures

Warm-up Activity:

Have students exchange their pictographs (homework from last lesson) and answer the questions
developed as part of the assignment. Then have students write a new question for the pictograph they
are reviewing.

Lesson:

Explain that that tally marks are used to keep count. Write 1=1 and 1111=5 on the chalkboard. Tell
students that 1111 is also called a gate.

Write 1111 1111 11 on the chalkboard. Ask students how much this is. (12) Write a few more
amounts and have students count them.

456
Next, write 7 on the chalkboard. Have a student come to chalkboard and write the amount using tally
marks. Ask students why the gates are important. (So the amounts can be easily counted.) Write
several more numbers on the chalkboard. Have volunteers come to chalkboard and write the tally mark
equivalents.

A graph is a picture used to make data clearer and easier to read and understand.
A block graph is a collection of blocks. Each block stands for something.

Use snap cubes to help the class make a block graph. On the chalkboard, write the title Hair Color.
Use the red, yellow (blonde), black, and brown cubes. Write the headings Red, Blond, Black, and
Brown on the chalkboard below the title. Have students come up and place a cube representing their
hair color under the correct heading. Cubes should be connected. If there are no cubes, use tally
marks.

Give students graph paper and help them make a block graph showing their class data.

Example:

Ask class if they are familiar with the Milton Bradley game Connect Four. Have students tell how to
play it, if they know.

Tell class they are going to play a game similar to Connect Four. Divide class into two teams. One
team is l and one team is 7. The object of the game is to get four of the marks in a row across, up
and down, or diagonally. Show examples of this on the transparency. Choose a number between 1
and 10. Call on one student from each team to choose a number between 1 and 10. The team closest
to the chosen number goes first. Teams will alternate turns. Go up and down the rows allowing
everyone a chance to play until the game is over. To begin the game call on the first student to give two
numbers between 0 and 15. For example, team x chooses 3 and 8. Be certain to count across 3 and
count up 8 on the graph. Write x on the graph at (3, 8). Team d chooses 4 and 6. Count across 4
and up 6. Write d on the graph at (4, 6).

Allow each team to choose two more numbers and plot them on the grid. Next, discuss the process of
plotting points. Tell students to note that the first number goes across and the second one goes up.
Continue alternating turns until one team has four in a row. At this time, discuss strategies such as
blocking the other team’s moves.

Choose one student form each team to plot the points in the second game.

Display a clean graph transparency. Tell students that the goal is to mark where 6 and 7 would be
positioned on this graph. Have a volunteer explain where the mark would be placed. Go right 6 and
then up 7. Plot the point on the graph.

Remind students that across is the horizontal axis and up and down is the vertical axis. Write (6, 7) on
the transparency. Tell students that (6, 7) is called an ordered point. The first number tells how far to
the right to go. The second number tells how far up to go. Marking this point on the graph is called
plotting a point.

Plot the points (3, 7) and (7, 3) on the graph. Check that students understand that order is important.

Ten Statements

Review the ten statements and have the students write yes if they heard it in today’s lesson and no if
they did not. If the answer is no, say: The statement is true, but it was not heard in today’s lesson.

Analyzing Data: Line Plots

Materials:

1 Information Sheet

1 envelope (9 ½” x 6 ½”)

Construct a graph using plots and information given.

Make a copy of this study board and use it to reteach this lesson.

Line Plot

A line plot can be used to order lists of data. To make a line plot, first make a number line. Then put
an X above each number as many times as the number appears in the list.

A line plot also allows you to see the shape of data. If you draw a line above the X’s, you can see that
the data curves up and down.

A cluster is a group of data that are close together on a line plot.


A gap is a space between data on a line plot.
An outlier is a data point that is very far from the other values on either end of a line plot.

Example:

Outlier Cluster Gap

As you give the directions on constructing a line plot, write and draw the steps.

Step 1. Draw a line across your paper. ______________________________

Step 2. Find the scale you are working


with. (In this case, the fewest
number of wins is 3, and the ______________________________
largest is 14.) Write these numbers 3 4 5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12 13 14
under your line as shown and fill
in the values in between.

Step 3. Now use an X to record each number X


of wins on the number line. (The ______________________________
Giants had 8 wins, so put an X above 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Lesson:

A line graph is often used to show changes over a period of time, for example, with temperature. Line
graphs use a line to show how things change. The line goes up, goes down, or stays the same. If the
line goes up it show an increase. In the line goes down it shows a decrease. If the line if flat the value
stays the same. The horizontal axis shows the changes. Display the line graph Average Temperature
in Oz City (found on the next page) on the overhead or reproduce for class. Have students identify the
parts: title, labels, horizontal and vertical axes. Have volunteers answer the questions, and provide
additional ones with answers.

Six–Group Activity

Analyzing Data: Line Graphs

Materials:

2 illustrations of line graphs


10 index cards (5” x 7”)
1 envelope (9 ½” x 6 ½”)
1 black marker
1 pencil

Prepare the index cards using the black marker to write each question below on the front of a different
index card. Use the pencil to write the answer on the back of each index card.

Questions:

The graph shows the average price of what? (raw sugar)


The price of sugar is measured in what? (cents per pound)
The graph shows the rise and fall of raw sugar prices for what years? (1980-1987)
In 1986, a pound of sugar would have cost? ($.16)
What happened between 1982 and 1984? (raw sugar prices rose)
Between what years was there the biggest decrease in raw sugar prices?
(1984-1985)
What is the difference in price between a pound of sugar in 1985 and a pound of sugar
in 1986? ( 3 cents)
What is the difference between the highest and the lowest raw sugar prices shown on
the graph? (9 cents)
What did sugar prices do from 1980-1985?
(fell sharply, rose, then fell sharply again)
What is the title of this graph? (Average Price of Raw Sugar)

Say: The first thing you do to scan a line graph is to find the graph title, the axes’ names and the
labeled points along each axis.

Point to the graph and say: This graph shows the number of people living below the poverty level.
The question is… from what year to what year? Find the horizontal axis title. (Years)

Find the first and last years included on the graph. (Point this out.) The answer is 1981-1987.

Say: The next step in reading a line graph is to find the information line, and read the labeled
points along the horizontal and vertical axes.

492
Say: The question is: In 1987, how many people were living below the poverty level? (32 million)
First find 1987 on the horizontal axis. (Point this out.) From the bottom of the graph, move
directly upward to the information line.

Next, from this point on the information line, move to the left to the labeled point on the vertical
axis. Read the labeled point on the vertical axis. (32)

The answer is: 32 million people were living below the poverty level.

The last step is finding answers to comprehension questions. Inferences and predictions can be made
by comparing values represented on the information line.

The question according to the graph is: In what three years was the number of people living in poverty
the highest?

Display the picture of the graph Average Prices of Raw Sugar ask the students questions about the
graph using the activity cards. Give immediate feedback by revealing the answers on the back of the
index cards.

Use the graph Persons Below Poverty Level to reteach this activity.

Directions for reading a graph:

Say: First scan across the information line from left to right. Identify the three consecutive
points on the information line that are higher than any others. (Point this out on the graph.)

For each of these three points, move directly downward to the horizontal axis. Read the years labeled
directly below the designated points on the information line. The answer is 1982, 1983, and 1984.

Tell the students that they are going to do an activity on line graphs. Say: I am going to show you a
picture of a line graph and I want you to answer questions about the graph. After each question,
reveal the answer by turning the card over. Store this activity in the envelope.
