Overview

This classroom resource provides a video that describes how to use a circle graph to analyze data. The vocabulary words sector and protractor will be introduced. After utilizing this resource, the students can complete the short quiz to assess their understanding.

Content Standards

Mathematics (2019) Grade(s): 4

MA19.4.25
Use a protractor to measure angles in whole-number degrees and sketch angles of specified measure.

Unpacked Content

Vocabulary

Protractor
Angle
Whole number
Degree
Center
Circle
Intersect
Arc
Point
Ray
One-degree angle
Vertex

Knowledge

Students know:

Measurable attributes of geometric shapes, specifically angle size.
Units of measurement, specifically one-degree angle (degrees).
An angle is measured by the number or iterations of one-degree angles that exactly cover the rotation of the angle.

Skills

Students are able to:

Sketch angles given a specified measure.
Use appropriate tools to find angle measure.

Understanding

Students understand that:

the rotation of an angle is measured by the number of one-degree angles that exactly cover the rotation of the angle.

Mathematics (2019) Grade(s): 6

MA19.6.23
Calculate, interpret, and compare measures of center (mean, median, mode) and variability (range and interquartile range) in real-world data sets.

Unpacked Content

Vocabulary

Data distribution
Measures of center
Measures of variability
Mean
Median
Mode
Interquartile range
Range

Knowledge

Students know:

Measures of center and how they are affected by the data distribution and context.
Measures of variability and how they are affected by the data distribution and context.
Methods of determining mean, median, mode, interquartile range, and range.

Skills

Students are able to:

Describe the nature of the attribute under investigation including how it was measured and its unit of measure using the context in which the data were collected.
Determine measures of center and variability for a set of numerical data.
Use characteristics of measures of center and variability to justify choices for summarizing and describing data.

Understanding

Students understand that:

Measures of center for a set of data summarize the values in the set in a single number and are affected by the distribution of the data.
Measures of variability for a set of data describe how the values vary in a single number and are affected by the distribution of the data.
