This is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. This document includes 5 lessons to be used during the first week of school to develop students' mathematical mindsets. These lessons are adapted from YouCubed.org, which has more resources related to mathematical mindsets.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students will measure the distance of their feet and make a line plot of the numerical data.

These lessons are from Tools 4 NC Teachers and have been adapted from YouCubed.org. These lessons are remixable.

This is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students will collect data, complete a table, graph their data, and answer questions about their data. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. In this lesson, students will participate in the long jump to create a class set of data. Students will create a line plot and make discoveries about the data they record. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. In this lesson, students rotate through five measurement stations to collect numerical data. Following the data collection, students create a frequency table and a line plot to organize and display the data. This is remixable.

This lesson involves determining whether data is categorical or numerical. This lesson also addresses mathematical practice #1 and allows students to examine and correct errors.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students will collect data, create a table, graph their data, and answer questions about their data. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Students organize a set of data about their favorite weekend activities and create a representation to display the data. This lesson allows the teacher to assess students’ prior understandings of graphical representations and introduce mathematical practice #4 – Model with mathematics. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers and is intended to be taught towards the beginning of the cluster. This lesson focuses on developing a mathematical community at the beginning of the school year. Students collect data and make a scaled bar graph, which they worked with in third grade. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. This lesson allows students to pose a question that yields numerical data, collect the data, and then represent the data on a line plot or bar graph. This is remixable.

This set of 5 lessons has been adapted from YouCubed.org. It is intended to be taught the first 5 days of school to lay the foundation of mathematical mindsets. It is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. Given a situation, students find the pattern, extend the pattern, and plot points in the coordinate grid. This is remixable.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. This lesson involves determining whether data is categorical, numerical, or changes over time. This is remixable.

In this lesson, students develop an understanding of the concept of graphing data over time on a line graph, by measuring (at multiple times) the amount of water being poured. They work collaboratively in teams, with roles for accountability, as they practice protocols for a productive mathematics classroom culture.

This lesson is from Tools 4 NC Teachers. In this lesson, students explore the world to collect data on the ten-day forecast of high temperatures of a place of their choice. They then create a line graph representing their data. This is remixable.
