Purposeful and Transparent
The activities are selected in order to create a better understanding of graphs. The students can monitor their progress as they plot the points from the data chart.
Contextual
Many of the students earn minimum wage or less and would be interested to see the changes over time. The second graph relates to the high gasoline prices.
Building Expertise
Students have some knowledge of graphs and charts (newspapers, ads, promotional solicitations, etc.) This activity allows them to create one type of graph and could be done in a series of lessons on different kinds of graphs.
