The purpose of this activity is for students to learn Stage 1 of the Creating Line Plots center. In this stage, partners measure up to 8 objects to the nearest centimeter or inch. They work together to create a line plot to represent their measurement data. Then they ask their partner 2 questions that can be answered based on their line plot.

• Display a student created line plot.
• “Con su pareja, invéntense una pregunta que se pueda responder a partir de este diagrama de puntos” // “Work with your partner to come up with a question that can be answered based on this line plot.”
• Invite students to ask the class their question and have the class answer based on the line plot. 

The purpose of this activity is for students to choose from activities that focus on addition and subtraction within 100 and estimation and measurement. If students choose the Estimate and Measure center as their first choice, they may choose to represent their measurements in a line plot using the Creating Line Plots center materials as their second choice.

Students choose from previously introduced stages of these centers:

• Estimate and Measure
• Number Puzzles
• Target Measurements

• “¿Qué les gustó de las actividades en las que trabajaron hoy?” // “What did you like about the activities you worked on today?"
