Access Point #: MAFS.7.SP.1.AP.2aArchived Access Point

Collect data from a sample size of the population, graph the data, and make inferences about the population based on the data.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Understand basic information from simple graphs (e.g., interpret a bar graph using the understanding that the taller column on a graph has a higher frequency, the shorter column on a graph has a lower frequency).
  • Identify a representation of two bar graphs (one category apiece) as having greater or less frequency of members/events related to a single variable (e.g., compare number of boys in soccer to girls in two graphs).
  • Make a comparison between two graphs.
Representation:
  • Identify a pictorial representation of two bar graphs (one category apiece) as having greater or less frequency of members/events related to a single variable (e.g., compare number of boys in soccer to girls in two graphs).
  • Understand the following concepts, symbols, and vocabulary for: more, less, higher, lower.
General Information

Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 07/14
Cluster: Use random sampling to draw inferences about a population. (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.
