Using Line Plots to Compare Student Growth from Year to Year

This video tutorial teaches how to draw conclusions using line plots, focusing on student growth data. It explains how to interpret line plots, especially with fractional data, and compares growth between 4th and 5th graders. The tutorial demonstrates calculating total growth using fractions and concludes that 5th graders grow more in a year. The lesson emphasizes understanding data representation and making informed conclusions.
