 * Student will be able to a bar graph

Title of lesson: Time in measurement Resources/materials needed: Computer, internet, pencil, paper  Description of lesson. Every date has a place in time. There are many important dates that we keep track of and can group them together. We will make a bar graph representing the dates of peoples birthdays in the class. Well label the graph by months and how many people are in each month. The students will have a visual to see who was born in the being of the year and you was born later on. The students then will make their own graph using the dates off of pennies

Assignment Today we will be making a graph. We will make one together using your birth dates and then you will make one on your own. Please look at the Graph as a reference to the one that you will be making. You will be given a hand full of pennies. You will group the pennies by the year they were make. Once you have the pennies in the correct group you can make a graph at http://nces.ed.gov/nceskids/CreateAGraph. No two graphs will look alike and this is okay.

Technology used: http://nces.ed.gov/nceskids/CreateAGraph The technology used in this lesson changes the teaching / learning in this way: This is a new way of making graphs that is fun for the students to do. They can record their information and see the results appear on the computer.
