Data All Year!: Monthly Graphing in K–2
Notice: To view/join sessions and download materials, you must login and/or register for the event.
Data doesn’t have to be a one-and-done unit! In this session, participants will explore how to build data and graphing skills all year long using engaging monthly topics. Teachers will see how simple, recurring graphing routines help students create and interpret different types of graphs while strengthening number sense and math talk. Participants will leave with ready-to-use ideas and seasonal graphing prompts that make data meaningful, fun, and manageable in K–2 classrooms.
Additional resources:
- Slow Reveal Graphs are a great way to incorporate Data Anaylsis all year long. The “Slow Reveal Graph” instructional routine promotes cross-curricular sensemaking about data. As more and more of the graph is revealed, students refine their interpretation and construct meaning, often in surprising ways.-- https://slowrevealgraphs.com/
