4/24 - 4/28
Math Lesson Plans

Day 1: 4/24 ~ Monday

Math SOL 1.14: The student will investigate, identify, and describe various forms of data
collection (e.g., recording daily temperature, lunch count, attendance, favorite ice cream),
using tables, picture graphs, and object graphs. (Blooms: Analyze, Create)

Content Outline: Students will understand how data can be collected and presented in an
organized manner. Students will understand that data gathered and analyzed from observations
and surveys can have an impact on our everyday lives. Data collection can involve voting,
informal surveys, tallying, and charts.

Connection: Students have seen graphs before in a variety of places. Students participate in a
survey everyday when they record what they want for lunch. Students know what graphs looks
like but might be unfamiliar with how to create one and interpret one.

Rationale: Graphs and tables show information in concise and visual ways. Students are
naturally curious about their environment and they can quickly compare information from a
graph or table especially when it is real life (favorites, birthdays, pets, etc.) Students can graph
the classs favorite ice cream flavors and we can easily see the classs favorite type of ice
cream. The primary purpose of collecting data is to answer questions.

Today I will investigate different types of graphs.

So that I can see what the classs favorite type of ice cream is.
I know Ive got it when I can correctly make a graph and answer questions about it.

Differentiation: Students are offered differentiation because they have visuals for the visual
learners by looking at the smartboard presentations. They also have hearing by listening to the
teacher and other classmates. They have hands-on activities that allow them to cut and paste to
create graphs or walk around the room asking their classmates survey questions and creating
tally charts.

assessed on the accuracy of their graph. Students will survey every member of the class and
use tally marks to collect their data. Teacher will assess to ensure that students tally correctly
(slash through all 4 when it turns into a 5). Teacher will assess to make sure that students
graph the data correctly (fill in the correct number of boxes). Teacher will assess the students
conclusion ensuring that it makes sense and is correct.
