6. 3/14/20165 Problem Of The Day Mrs. Morgan volunteered at the library in her city on Saturdays. She put books back on the shelves, checked in returned books, and read to children. If she volunteered for 3 hours and a half every Saturday, how many hours would she volunteer in a month with 5 Saturdays?

7. 3/14/20166 Today I want you to help me make a graph. I want to make a graph that shows the change in temperature throughout the day yesterday. What kind of graphs could we make to show this?

8. 3/14/20167 Bar Graph vs Line Graph What is the difference between a bar graph and a line graph?

9. 3/14/20168 Line Graph A line graph is a graph used to show change over time !! What can time be measured in??? Seconds - Minutes - Hours – Days - Weeks - Months – Years - Decades - Centuries - etc.

10. 3/14/20169 When to use a line graph? Would we use a line graph in the following situations: To show how many people like pizza in this class? NO To show how many people live in East Meadow? NO To show how much it rained each month this year? YES- because months and years deal with time.

11. 3/14/201610 Birthdays? Our birthday does deal with time doesn’t it? (months/years) But, our birthday is constant, meaning it never changes. A line graph shows change in time, so we would not use it for this type of graph. Would we use a line graph to show when our birthdays are?

12. 3/14/201611 How do we make a line graph? A line graph ALWAYS has a title! A line graph has two different axis’s An axis is either the horizontal line (called x) or the vertical line (called y) that form the base lines of a graph. Y X

13. 3/14/201612 YOU TELL ME…. What color is the y-axis? What color is the x-axis? Y X

14. 3/14/201613 X-axis and Y-axis When you are making a line graph, the x-axis is always horizontal, and the y- axis is always vertical. The x and y-axis usually starts with zero on a line graph It is important to make sure that the intervals on our y-axis are always equal. What do I mean by this?

15. 3/14/201614 Intervals When we are setting up a line graph, we need to decide what intervals we want to use. If we are graphing the temperature for a year, do we want to put 365 days on the graph, and 100 different temperatures? When we see a horizontal flat line, that means that there was no change during a specific time period.

16. 3/14/201615 Plotting a Line graph When we are plotting a line graph, it is important to read what information is on each axis. There must be a label on each axis that describes the information. Much like a bar graph, we look at the x-axis first in order to plot our points. Time in minutes

17. 3/14/201616 Is this an acceptable graph? Time Car Trip

18. 3/14/201617 What information do you need to interpret a graph? The graph we just looked at does not have any numbers on the x-axis or the y- axis. Can we still draw conclusions and answer questions about that graph? How many times did the driver stop driving during the trip? Time Car Trip

20. 3/14/201619 Q & A Which day did this person spend the most money? How do you know? This person spent the most money on Wednesday. I know this because the graph is the highest on Wednesday. About how much money in total did this person spend on Monday and Thursday? How do you know? This person spent about $9.00 on Monday and Thursday. I know this because I looked at where the line was for Monday and Thursday and added the two amounts.

22. 3/14/201621 Q & A How many days did this person travel less than 30 miles? Which day did the driver travel the least amount of miles? Why might someone want to keep track of their miles for the week? 5 days Sunday To figure out how much gas they need a week.

24. 3/14/201623 Q & A About how much corn did the U.S. have in 1991? What does the y-axis represent in the graph? Can you think of another title for this graph? About 77 million acres The rise and fall of corn in the U.S. Acres of corn in millions.

30. 3/14/201629 Pie Charts How to Read Pie Graphs Pie charts are best to use when you are trying to compare parts of a whole. They do not show changes over time.

31. 3/14/201630 This time the children have been asked to make a Pie Chart for a data group that has 20 people in total, 10 who like cake, 4 who like Apple Pie, 5 who like trifle and 1 who likes sticky pudding. The children’s Pie Chart is below but which part belongs to which group?

32. 3/14/201631 A Pie Chart has been made below but the information has gone missing from two segments of the Pie Chart. Can you work out the missing details and then explain how you found them? Mr. Sayne 50 Ms Cox Mrs. Morgan Mr. Hittson 5 Ms. Pierson 10

33. 3/14/201632 Make your own….. Now that you have had time to interpret graphs, I would like you to make your own graphs. Remember to read the information carefully and label everything!

34. 3/14/201633 Great Job!
