Unit 6, Lesson 5
Representemos datos de medidas en diagramas de puntos
Grado 3
Preparation
Lesson Narrative
In a previous lesson, students analyzed line plots that included measurements in halves and fourths of an inch. In this lesson, students collect measurement data, represent them on a line plot, and analyze line plots that represent different data sets (MP2).
This lesson may take more than one day if students need more time to collect data around the school and to create their line plots. If time permits, consider carrying out the activities across two days.
This lesson has a Student Section Summary.
- Representation
- MLR8
- Compare and contrast (orally) line plots that include measurements to the nearest half-inch or quarter-inch.
- Present (using words and other representations) a line plot marked off in appropriate units—whole numbers, halves, or quarters—to represent collected measurement data.
- Recolectemos datos de medidas y mostrémoslos en un diagrama de puntos.
Required Materials
Activity 1
Required Preparation
