Data Management expectations

We began the beginning of our Data Management Unit on Monday - here are the new learning expectations and some tips on how you can practice at home:

• I can collect data by conducting a simple survey 
• I can collect and organize and display data in charts, tables, and graphs with appropriate titles and labels 
• I can read data presented in charts, tables, and graphs, then describe the data using comparative language 
• I can interpret and draw conclusions from data 
• I can demonstrate an understanding of mode and identify the mode in a set of data 

Some ways that you can practice at home:
Sort objects at home (sort fruit & veggies into the fridge after shopping, sort coins in different ways), take surveys at home (who likes chicken more than beef, what type of pizza does everyone like in your family), if you see a graph or table in a book, newspaper, magazine, social media - ask your child to show you the labels, ask which is most popular, which is least popular, what does the graph tell you.
