Students will graph and analyze scientifically meaningful data based on real-world research on wild birds. Instruction is built into the activities.

Please click VIEW PREVIEW (above) to see more detail of every included resource.

Students will practice the following skills in these activities:

• Making line and bar graphs, including choosing intervals, labeling axes, and writing graph titles.
• Pulling data from line and bar graphs.
• Data analysis that requires using data as evidence to support conclusions.
• Reinforcement of experimental design, such as determining independent and dependent variables, constants, and forming research questions.

The activities are scaffolded as follows:

• Worksheets 1 (Juncos) and 2 (Herons): Designed to teach basic graphing and initiate thinking about experimental design and the meaning behind data.
• Worksheets 3 (Woodpeckers) and 4 (Hummingbirds): Provide additional practice with reduced scaffolding so skills learned in the first two lessons can be applied by the student.
• Worksheet 5 (Falcons): Provides the least scaffolding in graphing and can be used as a formative or summative assessment.

Teacher Notes:

• Please note that these resources are not editable.
• Answer keys included.
