Description
Practice Graphing & Analyzing Data II: To which country are Ruby-throated hummingbirds most likely to migrate?
This is lesson 4 of a series of 5 instructional worksheets that scaffold the skills of graphing and data analysis while building background knowledge. Rather than graphing meaningless data, your students will graph and analyze scientifically meaningful data based on real-world research on wild birds.
Skills and content for Practice Graphing & Analyzing Data II:
1. Scaffolding for making a double-bar graph; including prompts for choosing intervals and labeling axes.
2. Calculating percentages of a total and using data as evidence to support conclusions.
3. Experimental design analysis such as determining independent and dependent variables, variables held constant and forming research questions.
Instruction is built into the worksheet – Based on your students’ experience with graphing, analysis and understanding variables you can determine whether they can work independently or need direct instruction for this activity.
