In this lesson, fifth graders learn how to graph data using a coordinate grid. The teacher guides students through graphing outdoor temperature data and windows repaired data, explaining how to label axes and plot ordered pairs. Students are assigned homework to practice these skills and are encouraged to self-assess their understanding.

What is the essential question for Lesson 9.3?

• How can you use a coordinate grid to display data collected in an experiment?

• What is the importance of data collection?

• How do you measure temperature accurately?

• What are the different types of graphs?

When graphing data from a table, what should you label the horizontal axis with?

• Temperature

• Time or hours

• Degrees Fahrenheit

• Coordinate grid

In the context of graphing ordered pairs, what does the origin represent?

• The point (0,0)

• The highest point on the graph

What does the ordered pair (1, 61) represent in the temperature data?

• 61 degrees and 1 minute

• 1 degree and 61 hours

• 61 hours and 1 degree Fahrenheit

In the windows repaired table, what does the number 14 represent?

• The average number of windows repaired

• The number of days

• The total number of windows repaired

• The number of windows repaired on day 14

What should be the title of the coordinate grid for the windows repaired data?

• Windows Repaired
