Description
This Nearpod* activity is an introduction to analyzing data that works to either introduce the topic or review the key points. It starts by reviewing the two kinds of data (qualitative and quantitative) and common graphs (Line, Bar/Histogram, Dot Plots). Then it explores how to read a graph to see trends (positive/negative/no relationship) and gives students opportunities to practice reading graphs to identify whether there is a trend.
What's Included:
In addition to the Nearpod (9 slides), this download includes a student worksheet (1 page, double-sided) that can be completed together (guided notes) or independently by the students (in-class/homework). It also includes a slide-by-slide facilitation (1 page, double-sided) and 15 vocabulary cards that can be printed for a word wall or used as a digital reference.
A 4-question formative assessment is included in the Nearpod as well as a gamified closing activity.
*Students do not need to have Nearpod accounts to participate in this lesson. Accounts are only needed if you want to be able to download a report and track data using the Nearpod premium features.
