Daily Lesson GAME Plan Template The Focus of This Assignment Is

This lesson plan template provides details for a 9th grade mathematics lesson called "Datapalooza" about data analysis and probability. The goals are for students to use an interactive data explorer to analyze country fertility rates compared to other variables, understand how the tool works, and apply it to other projects. Students will explore data visualizations on the Google Public Data Explorer, make observations about relationships in the data, and present statements supported by evidence from the charts and online sources. They will also answer questions about how chart types impact data presentation and sources of variability.

Lesson Title: Datapalooza
Grade Level: 9th Grade
Subject: Mathematics
Related Lessons: Data Analysis and Probability
Unit: Data Use and Statistical Thinking to draw inferences, make predictions and
justify conclusions

GOALS
Content Standards:
Common Core State Standards
Functions (F-IF.4)
For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key
features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing
key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include:
intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or
negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and
periodicity.
Functions (F-IF.7)
Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by
hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases.
Standard for Mathematical Practice #4 Model with Mathematics
Speaking and Listening Anchor #2-3
2. Integrate and evaluate information presented in diverse media and formats,
including visually, quantitatively, and orally
3. Evaluate a speaker's point of view, reasoning, and use of evidence and rhetoric.
Minnesota K-12 Academic Standards in Mathematics
Data Analysis & Probability
9.4.1
Display and analyze data; use various measures associated with data to
draw conclusions, identify trends and describe relationships.
1 Describe a data set using data displays, including box-and-whisker plots; describe
and compare data sets using summary statistics, including measures of center,
location and spread. Measures of center and location include mean, median,
quartile and percentile. Measures of spread include standard deviation, range and

inter-quartile range. Know how to use calculators, spreadsheets or other technology


to display data and calculate summary statistics.
9.4.2
Explain the uses of data and statistical thinking to draw inferences, make
predictions and justify conclusions.
1 Evaluate reports based on data published in the media by identifying the source
of the data, the design of the study, and the way the data are analyzed and
displayed. Show how graphs and data can be distorted to support different points of
view. Know how to use spreadsheet tables and graphs or graphing technology to
recognize and analyze distortions in data displays.

Objectives:

Students will use the interactive Google Data Explorer to analyze a complex
data system.
The students will explore the fertility of countries versus various other
independent variables to understand how certain variables affect change.
Students will study how the Google Data Explorer works and they will
understand how access to this information may help them with data for other
projects they encounter in their schooling.

Action
Before-Class Preparation:
Go through the instructions to make sure you understand the process.
Make handouts for each student, of the instructions below.
Teacher Instructions
Instructional Activities:
1. Visit the Google Public Data Explorer website
https://www.google.com/publicdata/directory
2. Select a dataset

Pre-Constructed
Charts

Datase

3. Select Explore the data

Click this button, Explore the Data

4. Select data for y axis

Y Axis

X Axis

5. Select data for x axis (if needed). See screenshot in step 4.


6. Select chart type bubble

Chart Types. Click through each option (line, bar, map, bubble) until you get to the bubble chart option.

7. Select Compare by data (minimum 2 if possible)

Click the
drop-down
to choose
what youd
like to
compare

8. Click the play button to see how the data changes over time.

Click the Play Button

9. Change the chart types from bubble, to line, bar and graph to see which graph is
best. See screenshot in step six.
10. Change the variable types to compare with other countries/variables. You can do
this by changing your y and x axis (see step 4) and/or you can change your
Compare by variables (see step 7).

Student Assignment:
1. Assign students to make observations from the data and make written
statements in a Google Doc as to why a certain event is true.
2. Students must make at least five statements with evidence from the chart
and from the Web to back up their claims from the data.
3. All sources must be cited.
4. Instruct students to present the statements and supporting evidence to the
class.
Two Inquiry Questions
What occurs when you select different chart types? (line, bar, map, bubble)
What were some sources of variability?
