Collect and graph fractional data on a line plot (e.g., length of each person’s pencil in classroom, hours of exercise each week).

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Identify a data set based on a single attribute (e.g., pencils vs. markers).
  • Identify items for a data set with more than one or less than one (e.g., this bar represents a set with more than one).
  • Organize the data on the line plots using objects that represent one piece of data (e.g., Use tools to measure the length of students’ hands. Using objects, plot measurement data on a line plot.).

    measurement data plotted on number line
Representation:
  • Organize collected data on a line plot (e.g., Use tools to measure the length of students’ hands. Plot measurement data on a line plot.).
  • Identify data set with some number (e.g., how many students’ hands were 5 1/4 inches long?).

Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14 Cluster: Represent and interpret data. (Supporting Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.

Name Description
MAFS.5.MD.2.2: Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed equally.
