Lesson 15 Different Ways to Show Data - This lesson teaches students to take data from a real-world context, like a class's favorite fruit, and represent it in different ways. It introduces concepts like tally marks, bar graphs, and pictographs as ways to visualize information.counting and data representationMA.K12.MTR.2.1 Read and comprehend grade-level complex texts proficiently.Students are taught to count items and then organize that information visually to answer questions. This is a foundational step for mathematical operations, as it involves gathering numerical information and using it to solve a simple problem, such as determining which fruit is the class favorite.

Lesson 15: Different Ways to Show Data and Lesson 16: Data in Variables. These lessons involve representing the same set of data in multiple formats, such as tally marks and a bar graph. This activity implicitly teaches the concept of equivalence—that different representations can hold the same information.equivalenceMA.K12.MTR.2.1 Read and comprehend grade-level complex texts proficiently.The lessons on data representation demonstrate that different visual representations can be equal in value, even if they look different. This is a foundational concept that can lead to understanding properties of equality.

Lesson 18: Algorithm Introduction. An algorithm can be considered a procedural formula, a set of instructions to get a specific result. While it doesn't teach a specific math formula, it teaches the foundational skill of following a set of steps to solve a problem, which is what a formula represents.AlgorithmMA.K12.MTR.3.1: Complete tasks with mathematical fluency. An algorithm is defined as a list of steps to follow in the right order to get a specific result. This concept is a procedural formula for problem-solving, which is a foundational skill for applying mathematical formulas later on.
