Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Lesson plan

Topic

Line Plots

Objectives

• Students will understand what a line plot is and how to create one.
• Students will learn to interpret data represented in a line plot.
• Students will practice collecting data and displaying it in line plot form.

Materials

• Whiteboard and markers
• Chart paper
• Sticky dots or counters (for data collection)
• Worksheets with line plot templates
• Example data set for class practice

Grade/Age Group

Grade 2

Subject

Mathematics

Class Size

20 Students

Lesson Length

30 Minutes

National Curriculum Alignment

This lesson aligns with the Common Core Mathematics Standards for Grade 2, specifically focusing on data representation and interpretation (CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.MD.D.10).

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction	5 mins	Briefly introduce line plots, displaying an example on the whiteboard. Explain how line plots are used to represent data.
2	Data Collection	10 mins	Use sticky dots or counters for students to collect data based on a simple survey question (e.g., favorite fruit). Record the raw data on the board.
3	Creating the Line Plot	5 mins	Guide students in transferring the collected data onto a line plot template, ensuring they label axes and plot their data accurately.
4	Interpreting Data	5 mins	Discuss the line plot created. Ask questions about the data, leading students to interpret what the line plot tells them.
5	Practice	3 mins	Distribute worksheets with an empty line plot and a new data set for students to create their own line plot.
6	Wrap-Up	2 mins	Summarize key points about line plots. Explain homework assignment: Reflect on the line plot created and write 2-3 sentences about what they learned about data representation.

Homework

Students will complete a worksheet where they will create a line plot from a simple data set provided in the assignment and reflect on their understanding of line plots without presenting it in front of the class.

Assessment

• Observation during the lesson to ensure participation and understanding.
• Review of line plots created during class and homework for accuracy and clarity.
