This week in math, the students will begin to discuss how data is collected, categorized and analyzed.  The students will show data in tape diagrams where units are equal groups with a value greater than 1.  They will explore picture and bar graphs as vertical representations of tape diagrams and apply skip-counting and multiplication strategies to analyze data. The students will create scaled bar graphs and begin to solve one and two-step word problems involving graphs.
