The Quantile® Framework for Mathematics, developed by educational measurement and research organization MetaMetrics®, comprises more than 500 skills and concepts (called QTaxons) taught from kindergarten through high school. The Quantile Framework depicts the

developmental nature of mathematics and the connections between mathematics content across the strands. By matching a student’s Quantile measure with the Quantile measure of a mathematical skill or concept, you can determine if the student is ready to learn that skill, needs to learn supporting concepts first, or has already learned it.

Interpreting Information from Graphs

“Climb the Mountain Range”

Teacher note: Challenge students to use their knowledge of interpreting data from graphs by introducing range. In this game, students determine range using various graphs while racing to the top of a mountain “range.”

Group size: whole group (Part I); groups of three to four students (Part II)

Materials: practice range, transparency pages 76-77; game board, page 78; game cards, pages 79-83; game cube, page 84; overhead pen; game board markers in different colors (1 per player); scratch paper; pencils; answer key, page 85

Before class: Copy 1 game board, page 78, per group and laminate. Copy game card backs, pages 79-82, on the back of game card fronts, page 83 (1 set per group), and laminate. Copy 1 game cube, page 84, per group on cardstock, and tape together. Gather remaining materials.

Directions (Whole Group):

• Place Practice Range, transparency page 76, on the overhead. Use a sheet of paper to cover all graphs except for Graph #1.

• If desired, use the following questions to quickly review interpreting data using a graph:

• Which one is the most/least favorite?

• Which one is second/third favorite?

• Which is the total of the top/bottom 2?

• How many more chose than ?

• Define “range” as the difference between the highest and lowest score on a graph. If necessary, review how to determine the difference of two numbers by subtracting.

• Determine the highest number chosen on Graph #1. (20)

• Now determine the lowest number on Graph #1. (10)

• In the blank space next to the graph, write a subtraction problem using those scores (20-10), and ask students to solve to determine the range of this graph. (10)

• Uncover Graph #2.

• Discuss finding the range of data using a pictograph. Explain the importance of determining the value of each picture symbol using the key.

• Have students find the highest number of students loosing teeth on Graph #2 (22) and the lowest number. (2)

• Write the corresponding subtraction problem next to the pictograph, and instruct students to determine the difference or range. (20)

Directions (Whole Group), continued:

• Place Practice Range, transparency page 77, on the overhead. Students should identify Graph #3 as a line graph.

• Explain to the students how to determine the range of a line graph (identify highest number sold and subtract the lowest number sold).

• Write a subtraction problem next to the graph, and have students solve it to determine range of graph (35 - 7 = 28).

Game Directions:

• Distribute a game board, set of game cards, game cube, board markers, and an answer key to each group. Students will shuffle the cards and place them in a stack.

• Place the game board in the center of the playing area with the game cards and answer key face-down next to it, so all are within easy reach of players.

• Shortest player begins by selecting the top card.

• Player #1 determines the range of the graph by subtracting the lowest score from the highest score. Scratch paper and pencil can be used if necessary.

• Other players verify the answer by locating the graph number on the game card and finding the corresponding number on the answer key (or, each group could have an “answer person” who would hold the answer key and declare answers correct/incorrect; switch “answer persons” after 8 turns). Game card is placed at the bottom of the stack.

• If the range is incorrectly identified, Player #1 loses a turn, and play continues with the next player.

• If the range is correctly identified, Player #1 rolls the game cube to determine the number of spaces or “feet” to move up the mountain. For example, if 2,000 feet is rolled, Player #1 would move his/her game board marker 2 spaces, since each space represents 1,000 feet. If the player’s marker is on the 4,000 feet space and he/she rolls 2,000 feet, then the marker would be moved to the 6,000 feet space.

• If one of the special instruction sides of the game cube is rolled, the player follows the directions, and the game continues.

• Player reaching the “summit” or top of the mountain first is declared the winner.

Optional: Players can continue the game by racing back down the mountain following the same directions. The first player to reach the “base” or bottom of the mountain is declared the winner.
