North Carolina Standard Course of Study Grade 5 Number and Operations, Measurement, Geometry, Data Analysis and Probability, Algebra:COMPETENCY GOAL 4: The learner will understand and use graphs and data analysis.
Lesson (...)
Lesson: This lesson will challenge students to think creatively by having them design and build water balloon catchers from random scrap materials, while requiring them to take into consideration a multitude of variables. Students will then construct at least two bar graphs to be used in a commercial advocating the purchase of their group's catcher.
Activity (...)
Activity: Create a game spinner with variable sized sectors to look at experimental and theoretical probabilities. Parameters: Sizes of sectors, number of sectors, number of trials.
Activity: Enter data to create a bar graph, then change many settings for the graph's appearance.
Activity: Enter your own data categories and the value of each category to create a pie chart. There are
also built in data sets which can be viewed.
Activity: Create a pie chart, adjusting the size of the divisions using your mouse or by entering values.
Parameters: Number of sections, size of sections, whether to use percents or fractions.
Activity: Build dot plots of data using your mouse. View how the mean, median, and mode change as entries are added to the plot. Parameters: Range for observations.
Activity: Experiment with a simple ecosystem consisting of grass, rabbits, and wolves, learning about probabilities, chaos, and simulation.
Activity: Create a game spinner with one to twelve sectors to look at experimental and theoretical
probabilities. Parameters: Number of sectors, number of trials.
Activity: View stem-and-leaf plots of your own data, and then practice finding means, medians and modes. Parameters: Data
