Lesson+Plan

=Objectives:=
 * Audience**- 9th grade students3
 * Behavior**- Students will have a clear understanding on how to create and interpret a graph. Students will also understand real-world applications of graphs.
 * Condition**- Students will work in a technology-integrated environment.
 * Degree**- I expect all students to walk complete this assignment with a 100% mastery of the material.

=
1. Knowledge- Students will write about several concepts such as mean, median, and stem/leaf plots.======

=
2. Comprehension- Students will explain what these concepts mean within the context of their paper/presentation.======

=
3. Application- Students will take these concepts and apply them while they create function and type their paper.======

=
4. Analysis- Students will compare the data taken for the two graphs and analyze what they mean together.======

=
5. Synthesis- Students will take what the information gathered and compose graphs as a physical representation of the data collected.======

=
6. Evaluation- Students will compare and contrast the data that has been collected and asses how it relates to each other. Students will also be asked to compare and contrast the two graphs and the mean/median numbers.======

Interpret a graph representing a real-world situation.
=Materials Needed:= **Computer Lab**- Utilized by students **1 Color Printer**- Used to print out spread sheets **Stock Paper**- Use for printing spread sheets on
 * 1 Microsoft Excel Classroom Package**- To be utilized by students for the project

=

 * Thursday**: This will be the final day for students to enter in the information that have received into Excel. Have students create a stem and leaf plot to represent the information in one of their questions. Students will also be expected to display the mean and median of their data. Any class work that is not finished on this day will be assigned as homework to be presented the next day. Each student will type out a reflection paper stating what he or she have learned for homework. Paper is to be ½ to 1 page in length.=====

=

 * Friday**: Have students make their presentations in class. Presentations will last 1-2 minutes. Any presentation that lasts longer than 3 minutes will be cut short in order to meet time restraints. Students will be encouraged to keep transition time between presentations brief.=====
