Recolectemos y representemos datos
Lesson Purpose
Lesson Narrative
In grade 1, students collected data and represented it in different ways. In this lesson, students collect data about their class, answer questions, discuss the need to represent data in an organized way, and create their own representations of their data. Throughout the lesson monitor for the different ways students choose to organize and represent the data and ask them about the decisions they make. In upcoming lessons, students learn how to interpret and represent data using picture and bar graphs.
In this lesson, students collect data about the question “¿Cómo llegamos a la escuela?” // “How do we get to school?” If this question is not relevant to your class, choose a different survey question or change the categories to be more relevant for your students.
