Grade Patterns and Relations PR II.2.4

Table Top Jr.

(Activity created by Aaron Benarroch, 
South District Support Teacher)

To Create this File:

In Table Top Jr. have students click on the dice at least 30 times.

Click on plot Stack Up. Click on other stuff and let me sort.

At this point students can be given sorting rules or they can create their own.

In this file a rule has been defined by clicking in the buttons that say Free Stacking. Define the rule by choosing the number button (99) and click on OK.

Students drag and drop the Data People into the appropriate location to form a bar/picto graph that matches the sorting rule.

Assessment: Have students click on other stuff on the menu bar and choose sort for me.

If there is no movement of Data People then they have been sorted correctly.

As an option you can increase the complexity by have students click on Plot and on Axes. Click on Other Stuff and Let Me Sort. Have students sort Data People by establishing their own sorting rules.
