18/01/2022 Can I read and interpret continuous line graphs? Hannah grows a sunflower and measured it once a week every week for 8 weeks. The table shows her measurements. Think about how you would represent this in a graph. Year 4 Statistics Lesson 2

18/01/2022 Can I read and interpret continuous line graphs? TALKING TIME: Hannah grows a sunflower and measured it once a week every week for 8 weeks. The table shows her measurements. You need to draw a dot above the week, matching the height of the sunflower. Then you need to use a ruler to join the dots and create a continuous line. The sunflower keeps on growing until week 6. The line then flattens. Remember: we use a line graph for continuous data and bar graphs for discreet data (grouped). Year 4 Statistics Lesson 2

Year 4 Statistics Lesson 2 18/01/2022 Can I read and interpret continuous line graphs? Dylan fills up a bucket with water ready to wash his dad’s car. As he carries it outside he noticed that the bucket was leaking. Below is a table of information showing the amount of water in the bucket at 5 minute intervals. Use the data in the table and represent it in a line graph. Write a question you could ask a friend about your graph.

Year 4 Statistics Lesson 2 18/01/2022 Can I read and interpret continuous line graphs? ACTIVITY 2: Dylan fills up a bucket with water ready to wash his dad’s car. As he carries it outside he noticed that the bucket was leaking. Below is a table of information showing the amount of water in the bucket at 5 minute intervals. Use the data in the table and represent it in a line graph. Write a question you could ask a friend about your graph. How much water was in the bucket after 10 minutes?

18/01/2022 Can I read and interpret continuous line graphs? TALKING TIME: Ella pushed a toy car across the ground. Which graph shows this? How do you know? Year 4 Statistics Lesson 2

18/01/2022 Year 4 Statistics Lesson 2 Can I read and interpret continuous line graphs? TALKING TIME: Ella pushed a toy car across the ground. Which graph shows this? The first one. How do you know? The toy car would travel as far as it could after being pushed then would stop and would not travel anymore distance but the time would still move on.

18/01/2022 Can I read and interpret continuous line graphs? Draw a line graph. It needs to show the story below. Tim runs a bath. He uses hot water at first then adds a bit of cold and hot and to finish his bath he uses cold on its own. Draw a line to show the temperature of the bath over the 10 minutes that the bath is run for. Year 4 Statistics Lesson 2
