Description
Students practice reading, interpreting, and drawing conclusions from histograms. First, students examine the parts of a histogram and how it differs from a bar graph. Secondly, students are guided through the process of drawing information from histograms. Next, they apply their problem-solving skills and determine which histograms can be used to convince different groups of people.
Grade 6 Ontario Math Curriculum Expectations:
D1.6
analyse different sets of data presented in various ways, including in histograms and broken-line graphs and in misleading graphs, by asking and answering questions about the data, challenging preconceived notions, and drawing conclusions, then make convincing arguments and informed decisions
WHAT'S INCLUDED
- Tips Sheet: This detailed guide will provide a breakdown of each part of the lesson.
- Getting Started: Students examine and list the differences between bar graphs and histograms. Next, they examine the parts of histograms and practice answering questions using the numbers listed.
- Working On It: A cooperative task that has students pair missing titles with histograms by using the data and intervals.
- Working On It: A cooperative task in which students must determine which histograms they will use to convince different family members to attend a movie.
- Exit Ticket: Students use the data from the provided histograms to answer a series of questions. A problem-solving task is included in which students must determine which histograms to use to convince 2 different groups to visit a vacation destination.
