Lesson Purpose
The purpose of this lesson is for students to draw a scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories.
Lesson Narrative
In a previous lesson, students used a survey to collect data. In this lesson, they represent their data set with a scaled bar graph. Then, students ask and answer questions about the information presented in their scaled bar graphs.
If students need additional support with the concepts in this lesson, refer back to Unit 1, Section A in the curriculum materials.
