Happy PD Day!
Social Studies
Spend some time working on your mind map of the natural resources in the Cordillera. Some of you did not finish the words on the map, so the map is not due until Tuesday. Please remember to manage your time at school. You were given more time with the supply teacher to organize your map in rough and it was also a rainy indoor recess....

Math
Everyone seems to be understanding stem and leaf plots. BRAVO! Remember how to find the mode, median and range. Anytime you have a large amount of data (numbers) make sure you put the numbers in order. It makes finding those answers 100% easier. Here are a few graphs for review. Please make sure you complete them in your green math notebook. After I check everyone's math, we will have a quiz a day on each type of graph.

Pictograph:
Grade 4

Construct a pictograph on the results of a school survey on favourite hot lunch in the junior division at St. Nicholas School.

 

Food	Students
Wraps	15
Pizza	50
Pasta	20
Subway	25
Chicken Nuggets	35

 Make sure you include a scale and title.

Write 3 conclusions about your data, that is, what did your survey show?

 

Grade 5:

 

Construct a pictograph on the results of a school survey on favourite hot lunch at St. Nicholas School.

Food	Students
Wraps	29
Pizza	131
Pasta	45
Subway	98
Chicken Nuggets	109

Make sure you include a scale and title.

Write 3 conclusions about your data, that is, what did your survey show?

What is the value of each symbol? What is the value of ½ a symbol? What is the value of ¼ of a symbol?

 

Stem and Leaf Plot: (both grades)

The following are the results of the number of multiplication questions finished in 5 minutes in grade 4/5:

31, 48, 29, 34, 94, 36, 41, 45, 27, 49,

56, 49, 36, 52, 48, 96, 50, 54, 30, 29, 100

Step 1: Put the numbers in order

Step 2: Construct a stem and leaf plot of the data

Step 3: Find the mode, median and range

Write one conclusion about the results using your stem and leaf plot.

 

Bar Graph with Intervals: (both grades)

 

Hummingbird wing beats per second

80	84	78	77	81	75
91	87	88	69	71	85
81	85	86	83	87	88
80	84	79	81	84	72
88	87	90	86	77	83

 

To construct a bar graph with intervals the first step is finding the lowest number of wing beats which is 69, then find the highest which is 91. So you have values in the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. If we made our bar graph with intervals of 10, then we would have 4 bars. This is not the only way you could graph this data, but it is the easiest.

(on the tally chart below there should be a diagonal line through the set of five, but I couldn't find a way to do it on the blog) 

Wing Beats	Number of Hummingbirds
60 – 69	I
70 - 79	IIII    II

Complete the tally chart then graph your results. Write 3 conclusions about your graph.

Remember the tallies are the numbers on the vertical axis and the bars are labeled with the intervals. You can create the graph in your notebook USING A RULER or you can download some graph paper at the link below and glue it into your notebook.
