  • Kia ora koutou,

    Whāia te iti kahurangi ki te tūohu koe me he maunga teitei. 

    Seek the treasure you value most dearly, if you bow your head, let it be to a lofty mountain.

    This week, in Week 4, we will shift our focus to developing essential graphing skills and interpreting visual resources such as infographics. We will explore different types of graphs, such as bar graphs, line graphs, and pie charts, learning how to plot and interpret data effectively. In addition, we will analyze infographics to understand how information is visually presented and communicated.

    FOCUS / ARONGA Learning Intentions:

    We are FOCUSING on learning how to construct and interpret bar graphs, line graphs, and pie charts. 

    We are FOCUSING on understanding how to present data visually and accurately. 

    We are FOCUSING on resource interpretation, with a particular focus on infographics, to grasp how information can be visually conveyed. 

    We are FOCUSING on connecting graphing skills to real-life data, such as Olympic statistics and environmental reports.

    Kotahitanga (Unity): Understanding data and interpreting graphs brings clarity to complex information, promoting collaboration and shared understanding. Just as diverse individuals unite through visual representation, we will explore how graphs and infographics make data accessible to all.

    Learning Intentions:

    Students will learn how to plot and interpret bar graphs, line graphs, and pie charts. Students will understand the importance of visual presentation of data. Students will develop skills in interpreting infographics and other visual resources. Students will apply graphing skills to real-world data, such as Olympic statistics or environmental changes.

    Success Criteria:

    I can accurately construct and interpret different types of graphs (bar, line, pie). I can explain the significance of clear and accurate visual data presentation. I can analyse and interpret information from infographics. I can apply graphing skills to real-world examples, such as Olympic data or environmental reports.

    Get ready for an interactive week of learning as we graph our way through data and infographics, gaining valuable insights into how numbers and information can be communicated visually. Let's work together to build our graphing expertise and become proficient at interpreting resources!
