Week 26

(Module 3 Topic 3 Lesson 1 - 2: Graphs with Independent and Dependent Variables)

Learning objective = Students match graphs with different characteristics to scenarios and identify the independent and dependent quantities in each scenario. They analyze two situations that reverse the independent and dependent quantities to understand that the asked question often determines which quantity is independent or dependent. They compare the tables, graphs, and equations that represent each situation.

Parents can support learning at home by helping students connect this week’s lesson to real-life examples and practice explaining their thinking. Encourage your child to explain each step aloud rather than simply memorize a rule = SAMPLE TEST QUESTIONS + MORE QUESTIONS

***If your child needs more challenge, they can move at a faster pace by using this site to study the concepts of future lessons. Mr. Pierre will strive to prepare lessons two weeks ahead of the current week. Also, Khan Academy is a great enrichment resource***

Gravity Jumps (Graphing Skills)

Games of the North: Data & Graphing | Grades 6-8 Reporting Number of Observations (Grade 6) Teaching and Lesson ResourcesLearn about some of the events held at the Arctic Winter Games, an annual celebration of athletics and culture in the far northern latitudes, in this video from Center for Asian American Media. In the accompanying classroom activity, students use statistical tools, including histograms and box plots, to determine how event results have changed over time.

Real-Life Math | Data Analyst | Grades 6-8 Real World and Mathematical Ratio and Rate Problems Teaching and Lesson ResourcesIn this video, learn about the real-life mathematics data analysts use to compile, organize, and summarize collected facts into readable and logical formats for decision making. In the accompanying classroom activity, students develop and plan their own data analysis project that presents teachers with information about student technology use.

Javelin-Line-Plots (Minecraft Education)

Fruitastic Graphic | Rise and Shine: Math Time | Grades K-2 Measurement & Data Teaching and Lesson Resources2021 Arkansas Teacher of the Year, Susanna Post, takes results from a student survey and shows students how to represent that information in a picture graph and a bar graph. The worksheet that accompanies this video provides students the opportunity to analyze data represented in a bar graph.
