  • Integrate Data

    The goal of this resource is to integrate graphs, tables, and charts into your existing lessons that allow your students to have time to analyze, interpret, and create their own visual representations.

  • 35 Weekly Lessons

    Each of the 35 science topics has five parts that include

  • Multiple Uses

    Each topic is broken into five parts that can each be completed as a 5-10 minute warm-up before class starts. Or, the lesson could also be used as 40-45 minute activity where all five parts are completed on the same day.

Description:

You're not alone if your students struggle with understanding graphs, charts, and tables. It's a skill that takes an enormous amount of practice. This resource will help students build a strong foundation in analyzing data and creating their own data visualizations.

Included in every topic:

Part 1 - A phenomenon is presented and students will determine what area of science is being studied as well as what kind of data scientists could collect from the scenario.

Part 2 - Students will identify key parts of the graph, table, or chart and relate it to the provided phenomenon. This can be an interactive experience using the data labels provided or using their INB's.

Part 3 - Students will generate questions about the visual data and then answers each other's questions

Part 4 - Students will come up with different forms that could be used to display the same data and ideas.

Part 5 - Students will be given a new set of data relating to the phenomenon and will have to create their own graph, chart, or table.

Answer keys and multiple formats for displaying data on the board or in interactive notebooks are included.
