1 Second Grade Mathematics Unit 3 Performance Task: Lizards, Lizards, Everywhere! In this task, students measure lizards in centimeters and use the data to create a line plot. STANDARDS FOR MATHEMATICAL CONTENT MCC.2.MD.1. Measure the length of an object by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes. MCC.2.MD.9 Generate measurement data by measuring lengths of several objects to the nearest whole unit, or by making repeated measurements of the same object. Show the measurements by making a line plot, where the horizontal scale is marked off in whole-number units. STANDARDS FOR MATHEMATICAL PRACTICE Although all standards for mathematical practice should be applied regularly, this task lends itself to the standards below: 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 5. Use appropriate tools strategically. 6. Attend to precision. 7. Look for and make use of structure. BACKGROUND KNOWLEDGE (Information quoted from Van de Walle and Lovin, Teaching Student-Centered Mathematics: Grades K-3, pages 323, 325) Line graphs and line plots do show trends or tendencies that cannot be shown in bar graphs, and students should be encouraged to use them when appropriate. When data are depicted on a number line, such as in a line plot or histogram, the idea of data that are spread out or grouped together takes on a numeric meaning as well. For example, in a measure of the heights of boys and girls in inches, we might notice that girls heights are spread over a wider range than the boys. The boys heights may cluster around a particular height. ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS Why is it important to be able to organize and graph data? How do you know what type of graph to use? Why is it important for us to know how to measure different objects using different tools of measurement? MATERIALS Lizards Recording Sheet Centimeter Ruler July 2013 Page 81 of 85
2 Second Grade Mathematics Unit 3 Paper GROUPING Individual TASK DESCRIPTION, DEVELOPMENT AND DISCUSSION This is a culminating task for the standards in the unit of measuring and using a line plot graph. The students will be given a recording sheet that has graphics of lizards on it. Using a centimeter ruler the students will measure each lizard in centimeters. After measuring each lizard in centimeters, the students will then use that data to create a line plot graph that displays the lizard population at the zoo. Students will be required to create the line plot graph, label all parts of the graph, and also add sentences about the graph they created. FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT QUESTIONS Can you show me how you measured this (teacher points) lizard with your ruler? Explain to me how to use a ruler. How do you build a line plot graph? Where do the numbers on the number line of a line plot graph come from? What do you notice about your line plot graph? What do you think might challenge others when creating a line plot graph? July 2013 Page 82 of 85
3 Second Grade Mathematics Unit 3 Name: Date Lizards, Lizards, Everywhere! The zoo has many new lizards. Please help collect some data on their lizard population. Measure the lizards to the nearest whole centimeter. Lizard 1 cm Lizard 9 cm Lizard 2 cm Lizard 10 cm Lizard 3 cm Lizard 11 cm Lizard 4 cm Lizard 12 cm Lizard 5 cm Lizard 13 cm Lizard 6 cm Lizard 14 cm Lizard 7 cm Lizard 15 cm Lizard 8 cm Create a line plot to display the data. Write sentences about what you notice about your line plot. July 2013 Page 83 of 85
