Solving Problems with Data from Graphs
Students will use information from graphs to solve one- and two-step comparison problems.
Key Questions
- Analyze how addition and subtraction can be used to compare categories in a graph.
- Evaluate what conclusions can and cannot be drawn from a specific set of data.
- Explain how to calculate the total sum of all categories efficiently from a bar graph.

Planning templates for Mathematics
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.
