 * Grade 4, Graphing and probability**

Students will figure ratios and determine probability. Students will record data on a chart. Students will use data from a chart to create a bar graph. Students will analyze and interpret data.
 * Objectives**
 * Students will count, sort, and classify M&Ms by color.


 * Assessment Criteria:** [[file:math lesson scoring rubric.doc]] ||


 * Analysis of data**: Students did a great job creating a bar graph from the data. They were very engaged in the activity and worked well with their partners. Many of the students did not understand probability i had to walk around to each group and demonstrate how to find it. They also needed extra help when turning fractions to decimals.


 * Recommendations**: If i was to do this again i would explain in greater detail and slower how to find probability, many students were confused but once they knew how to do it they did a great job. I would but the students in larger than 2 person groups so that they can learn from each other and figure out answer

The high performer did not need any help with the chart, bar graph or probability. They were confident in their work and communicated well with their partner. The information was organized and easy to read.

The low performer was able to fill in their chart and create a bar graph with the help of their partner. They were able to get the probabilities in fractions but could not change them to decimals even after i went over it with them. In the future i would work longer with this student.
