This is Day 1 of a five day lesson plan on graphing. Today's lesson is on ways to collect data.
Power Point for Vocabulary
Students will learn how to collect and record data using a frequency chart and line plot. I require my students to keep their vocabulary notes in a composition book.
Why are there different types of graphs? Watch this video to find out.
Students will learn the basic differences and purposes of a bar graph, a line graph, and a circle graph.
Calculator instructions for probability simulation
This activity involves using the TI-73 Graphing Calculator and students will simulate rolling a die. The students will do 25 simulations and record their results using one of the specified methods of data collection.
