Unit 9 Overview:
In unit 9, students generate measurement data by measuring lengths of several objects to the nearest whole unit, or by making repeated measurements of the same object to create a line plot. Students will also draw picture and bar graphs (with single-unit scale) to represent categorical data. Students will analyze graphs to solve word problems.
- Students will analyze and understand a line plot is a representation of data on a number line. (2.MD.D.9)
- Students will use picture and bar graphs to analyze data, with up to four categories, in order to draw conclusions and solve problems about the data. (2.MD.D.10)
