Collecting and Organizing Data
Students will design and conduct simple surveys, collect data, and organize it using tally charts and frequency tables.
Key Questions
- Write clear survey questions to gather specific information for a class investigation.
- Explain why it is important to organize data systematically before trying to interpret it.
- Compare different methods of data collection and identify the advantages of each.

5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
