 * Monday - Height Measurement/ Data Collecting & Graphing**
 * This is already copied, class sets, for everyone
 * I also printed half sheet graph papers, class sets, for kids to graph their data
 * I did NOT make class sets for Mrs. Rodger's, I wasn't sure where they are
 * I do have originals of everything for Lovelace


 * Tuesday - Raisins Exemplar**


 * This is in 5th Shared, Flip Charts, Exemplars
 * I thought, we could read the exemplar together, and there are examples of Novice - Expert
 * Each example has a gray box over comments about the work, you can move the box after the kids give their opinions.
 * We could ask the kids to rate the work and create rubric together BEFORE they do theirs
 * I made an original copy for you guys if you want to make copies, or just read off the Promethean

 * This lessons is suggested to take two weeks, so we are going to use it as a guide, not step by step
 * Our focus will be comparing the data represented on line, bar, and picture graphs.
 * What is the difference in representation of the graphs
 * time
 * trends
 * quantity
 * relationships, dependent or not


 * Thursday - Create a bar graph and a line graph**
 * Starting in the morning - Students will need to record the temperature of the room, the temperature outside
 * Record their data and graph
 * You could also have students wait until the afternoon and then have them graph their heartbeats/min inbetween jumping up and down, or running in place, for a few minutes - basically anything to show dependent variables of time
 * Students will graph the amount of M & M Colors in bags of M&Ms - bar graph


 * Friday - Create a bar graph, that can be used a line graph**
 * Find a graph that shows "rainfall" in seperate months. Have students organize the data.
