What educators are saying

A great technology tool to use at the beginning of teaching line plots with categorical and numerical data.

Description

This Google Slides math lesson introduces students to line plots that are used to organize, graph, and interpret both categorical and numerical data. It also includes scaled line plots.

This lesson:

  • reviews frequency tables as a way of keeping track of data
  • explains the parts of a line plot including title, categories, and key
  • demonstrates how to create a line plot using the data from a frequency table by adding x's to represent the data
  • explains the difference between categorical and numerical data
  • provides questions to practice interpreting both types of data (just click to reveal the answers)
  • explains what a scaled line plot is and demonstrates how to read a scaled line plot correctly by paying attention to the line plot key

These slides are fully editable so you can tweak them to fit your needs. Be sure to check the preview file for a closer look at this lesson (Note: the Google Slides feature animations that will not work in the PDF preview file but it will still give you a good idea of what's included in the lesson).

Draw a scaled picture graph and a scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories. Solve one- and two-step “how many more” and “how many less” problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs. For example, draw a bar graph in which each square in the bar graph might represent 5 pets.
Generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. Show the data by making a line plot, where the horizontal scale is marked off in appropriate units-whole numbers, halves, or quarters.
Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Solve problems involving addition and subtraction of fractions by using information presented in line plots. For example, from a line plot find and interpret the difference in length between the longest and shortest specimens in an insect collection.
Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed equally.
