2.D.1.1 Explain that the length of a bar in a bar graph or the number of objects in a picture graph represents the number of data points for a given category.
In a Nutshell
Students enter second grade with a familiarity of bar-type graphs. Students in second grade learn how data can be categorized and displayed in a bar graph. Students experience categorizing objects in a bar graph in order to learn to make sense of real-world data. In third grade, students will summarize a data set with multiple categories using a bar graph with scaled intervals.
Student Actions

Teacher Actions
|
-
Communicate mathematically by analyzing and describing what the length of a bar in a bar graph or number of objects in a picture graph represents.
-
Develop accurate and appropriate procedural fluency by correctly interpreting titles and labels on a bar graph or picture graph.
|
-
Use and connect mathematical representations by creating real-world experiences for data collection that have meaning for students (favorite snack, pet, etc).
-
Pose purposeful questions to engage students in a discussion about the meaning of data, such as: “Why do people collect data? Are there different ways to display data? What can we learn from our data?”
- Build procedural fluency from conceptual understanding of bar-type graphs and picture graphs by providing real-world examples for students to examine and interpret.

Misconceptions

-
In order to formulate questions and decide how to represent data that have been gathered, decisions must be made. about how things might be categorized
-
Graphs are used to represent data from real-life experiences.
