Create scaled bar graphs where the scale is provided.
The core standards covered in this lesson
3.MD.B.3 — Draw a scaled picture graph and a scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories. Solve one- and two-step "how many more" and "how many less" problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs. For example, draw a bar graph in which each square in the bar graph might represent 5 pets.
The foundational standards covered in this lesson
2.MD.D.10 — Draw a picture graph and a bar graph (with single-unit scale) to represent a data set with up to four categories. Solve simple put-together, take-apart, and compare problems using information presented in a bar graph.
The essential concepts students need to demonstrate or understand to achieve the lesson objective
Suggestions for teachers to help them teach this lesson
The process for doing statistics involves four main steps: formulating questions, collecting data, analyzing that data, and interpreting the results. This lesson will address mainly the second and third parts of that process. The first step is left out for the sake of time, and while students will do some interpretation of the results, such as the most or least frequent response, the fourth step will mainly come in Lesson 28.

Problem Set
A task that represents the peak thinking of the lesson - mastery will indicate whether or not objective was achieved
5-10 minutes
Raquel kept track of the weather for 60 days. The data she collected is shown below.
Which bar graph correctly shows Raquel’s data?
The bar graph below shows the number of different kinds of coins in Chadwick’s collection. Chadwick also has 25 pennies. Complete the bar graph to show the number of pennies in Chadwick’s collection.
The Extra Practice Problems can be used as additional practice for homework, during an intervention block, etc. Daily Word Problems and Fluency Activities are aligned to the content of the unit but not necessarily to the lesson objective, therefore feel free to use them anytime during your school day.
Extra Practice Problems
Help students strengthen their application and fluency skills with daily word problem practice and content-aligned fluency activities.
